Merry Monday #57

  I have a card for this week's Merry Monday challenge based upon the sketch below.

  I chose the sentiment from Beautiful Blessings: Holiday because I have only used this set once or twice.I thought it needed more love. The musical background paper and stripes are from PTI's Holiday Flourishes and Swirls.
 To add a little depth to this card, I colored some crystals with my Copic and attached it to the flourish from Over Easy Sentiments.

 Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.

I agree with Tracey, Carol! This is fantastic! Love the way the sentiment takes the spotlight, the music paper in the background and the colored gems! Thanks for sharing this with us at Merry Monday!

Beautiful, elegant card, made so by your attention to detail in your background and crystals to match. I love the greetings in that set too. I had planned to make a half-dozen Christmas cards a month this year.Thanks fir the reminder :)
