September 2011 Christmas Card Challenge + 2

I started out to get a jump on my September cards for the SCS Christmas Card Challenge, and ended up doing 2 other challenges with it.  The layout is the current SCS Sketch Challenge 346, and it also is used for the SCS Stamp 2 Spend Challenge #3.  I picked out the stamp first and then went looking for a layout and thought the 346 would be perfect.  I love Whiff of Joy stamps and hadn't used this one yet.

The stamp is Whiff of Joy - Uru and Candycane; sentiment is also WOJ - Season's Greetings.  I also purchased the matching die that I used to cut out the tag - really cool.

The card base, mat, and sentiment are SU Cherry Cobbler; dp is Basic Gray, Figgy Pudding collection - Red Ryder (love it).  I stamped on GF white using Memento Tuxedo Black.  I stamped the sentiment with SU Craft White. Not sure where I got the ribbon, but it says it's Robert Stanley Collection.  The flowers are from Prima's Holiday Poinsettia collection when a dot of gold bling in the center.  I love bling.  The sentiment is popped up using dimentionals.

Of course I colored it with my Copics - E0000, E01, E02; E35, E37, E39, R39, R32, R35, R37, G09, W0.

I dug out a bottle of White Smooch which is pearlized ink and used that on the candycane which gives it a little glimmer.
