Christmas in July

Hi Crafty Friends,
Woohoo!  One Christmas card completed!!! Cut It Up Challenge #126 is Christmas in July and with the fabulous files provided by our sponsor, The Cutting Cafe, it's easy to get off to a great start.
Here's my card.

I turned this file into a shaker card by placing a piece of acetate behind the "Joy" and then popping up the card by surrounding the sentiment with dimensional tape to make a pocket for the sequins.  I finished the card by adding the red cord.
We were given the Christmas Card Fun file which can be found HERE. There are 12 different cards and 17 sentiments in the set.
Thank you so much Regina for our wonderful files.
Please follow our Cut It Challenge link above to join in the fun.
