Christmas Lodge Merry Christmas - Just Add Ink 126

Whew!! What a hot day today.  With the humidity factor the thermometer is hovering at 41 degrees C (about 90 degrees or so).  It's just too hot to spend any time outdoors.
So, I'm spending time in my craft room, making of all things, Christmas cards.
This card was made using the sketch challenge with Just Add Ink here

The image was stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink, then covered with Versa Mark ink and embossed with Iridescent Ice embossing powder.  I'm feeling cooler just looking at the image.

Stamp: Christmas Lodge, Petite Pairs
Inks: Cherry Cobbler, Versa Mark
Papers: Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White, Be of Good Cheer designer paper
Accessories: 2 1/2" circle punch, corner rounder punch, regal brads, Iridescent embossing powder, 1/2" cherry cobbler seam binding, 1/4" gumball green stitched taffeta ribbon, dimensionals

Lovely use of those papers and ribbons, Maria! Thanks for playing along with us at Just Add Ink this week. We in the southern hemisphere can't complain about the heat; I have the fire going at the moment!
