Christmas cards, take 3

I had a Stampin' Up party on the 20th of September and got the "Wishing You Cheer" set as part of my Hostess gift. I loved the saying stamp in it and I really liked the clipboard idea in the catalog (it's on page 33). The saying stamp says "Wishing you sparkle, wishing you cheer, for a bright merry Christmas and happy new year!" I also purchased the Bright bulbs Standard stamping wheel at my party. I stamped the card background with the bright bulbs stamping wheel in a dark green. I then stamped the saying stamp in blue on a white piece of paper. I colored the tree and the ornaments with different colored markers and stamped those on white paper also. I mounted the white paper on some dark blue and dark purple paper scraps I had. The tree images I mounted on the card front with regular adhesive. The saying I mounted between the tree images using 3d foam adhesive. I mounted them on a diagonal just to give it a little more visual interest. I really like how this one turned out.
