Copics were used to color the image. The Joy comes from another Penny Black stamp set called Peaceful Winter and is stamped in dark green ink. I had to find a small enough sentiment to put into the star sign. And, to dress the star up a bit I added some green rhinestones to match the stamped sentiment. The panel was die cut using the Out of the Box Technique so that it appears that the fluffy ball of her hat is outside the inner panel. The scalloped stitched dies used to cut the panels are from an Unbranded set.
I am entering this card in the Penny Black Creative Christmas Challenge.
Thanks for joining me and leaving your wonderful comments. I read all of them.
God bless,
Verna

I've really been enjoying your card posts lately, Verna! Such clever ideas! I've been so danged busy - it's craft show season for me and I am scrambling to keep up with inventory! Keep posting the great ideas! Love seeing them!
That is such a cute image and you've colored it perfectly! I love all the layered elements too!
Darling elf Verna... great job on the out of the box technique and I love all of the layers of color for matting.
She is very cute and just a little bit mischievous too. Love the framing in the colors that you used in the image. Great Christmas card! you must have quite a few by now.
So stinkin' cute!!! This card just makes me smile, and the colors really make it pop. I LOVE it!!!
She is one cute little elf girl, Verna! I love that you put a sentiment in the star. It looks like it belongs there. I'm getting more in the mood for Christmas cards, but still loving on fall, too. Such card making decisions!
This is a cutie...PB has some delightful elf images. The red Santa costume sparks this one up so well, and I loved the rhinestone detail on the star too. Also love the colorful festive mats with the fussy cut poof on her hat extending beyond the mat. TFS & Hugs

Isn't she fun! Great coloring too.
Awwwwww, Elf Ava, is just so adorable. Great coloring.
