Merry Monday #255 Word Joy with Marcia & Darlene's September Challenge Holiday

 

Welcome back to Merry Monday.  Hope everyone had a great summer.  Looks like everyone had some time for Christmas cards by the looks of our gallery.

So let's get started.  Marcia would like us to use the word Joy on our cards.

Come join us at Merry Monday 

PTI Shine and Holiday Double sentiment, and Misc. Christmas stamp embossed with Nuvo embossing glitter on black cardstock.

Thanks for stopping by.

My card for Merry Monday 

It has been almost a week since I have been in my craft room.  I came down with a horrible summer cough/cold.  Still not feeling good but just needed to play today.  This turned out just OK to me....
