Decorated with Happiness Christmas Greetings Card Version Two!

This - or that?

Today's card is the same design as yesterday's, except I've changed the colours and embellishments. (If you missed yesterday's card, it's here.) It's a great example of how you can make exactly the same card, yet have it look completely different:

Once again, this card features the Decorated with Happiness Bundle and Celebrate Everything Designer Series Paper (DSP), but I chose a Polished Pink snowflake pattern this time. I matched that up with a Coastal Cabana card base, a strip of Metallic & Shimmer Specialty Paper, and a panel of Basic White Cardstock embossed with the snowflake pattern from the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders. 

As before, I started by cutting out a fancy round label with the Painted Labels Dies, using Basic White Cardstock. Then I stamped the sentiment in Coastal Cabana ink. I also stamped one of each ornament onto scraps of Basic White, using Coastal Cabana and Polished Pink inks. Then I used the dies to cut them out.

I embossed the top half of a 3 3/4" x 5" Basic White panel. I then cut a 2 1/2" x 3 1/4" DSP panel on an angle and adhered it to the white panel. To hide the seam and add some sparkle, I cut a 1/2" wide strip of the black metallic specialty paper and attached it to the panel, then I flipped over the panel and trimmed the edges. 

Using dimensionals, I added the die-cut ornaments and label, then I embellished with Adhesive-Backed Stars. The final step was to attach the finished panel to a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" Coastal Cabana card base with dimensionals.
