Photo card with Festive Frame

This is my very first shadow box card. I was inspired by this week's Stampin' Sisters in Christ challenge. If you want to learn how to make this, you can go to THIS link or THIS.

I used Melanie's Festive Frame set. I colored the frame with Copics, then cut parts of some of the petals to make them look more 3D. I stamped "Joy" all over the frame to give it a unique, patterned paper look. The card base was stamped with the text stamp from my Vintage Borders set using Versamark.

Here is a close up of the card.

    This is absolutely Gorgeous. And the picture of your children couldn't be better. Fantastic pose of them. They are adorable.
    I love the way everything pops and the way you cut around the petals. Brilliant al always!

    Wow, you stamped all those words 'joy' on the paper and lined them up so well? You have got a steady hand! And the picture of the kids in there is adorable! The ribbon, the pop ups, what great touches you added to make this a masterpiece.
