Merry Monday #40

Time for a new challenge at Merry Monday! We are up to Challenge #40! I created my card with the Pear and Partridge Card Making Kit and the Glitter Rub-ons that match! The Rub-ons are a great way to get a multi-colored image and are easy peasy to apply! My shapes were cut with the Cricut Artiste cartridge. Here is a look at the original sketch design by Lesley-

I finished out the inside with my favorite Christmas saying of the year! The Merry Christmas phrase is from the new Ornamental Cheer stamp set. I just love the classic font.

All supplies by Close To My Heart:
Z1790 Cricut Artiste Collection
G1043 Pear & Partridge Card Making Kit
X7162C Complements Glittery Rub-Ons
Z2116 Cranberry Ink

I have entered my card in the following challenges:
