“Joy” is one of my favorite three-letter words, and it seemed perfect for today’s design.

JOY to the world
I first decided to use Heartwarming Hugs Designer Paper, and cut three squares of different patterns with a plain, Layering Squares Die. Then, I cut three squares from Real Red Cardstock with the scalloped, Layering Squares Die, that’s a smidge larger than the plain square. After gluing them together, I placed them on Dimensionals.
Next, I cut the letters J-O-Y, using Playful Alphabet Dies with Heartwarming Hugs Designer Paper, and Foam Adhesive Sheets. Don’t the letters look cute on the squares?

For the background, I cut a piece of Whisper White Cardstock with the largest Ornate Layers Die, and embossed it with the Absolutely Argyle Embossing Folder.
I glued my embossed layer to a Real Red card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

I completed the sentiment with “to the world” from the Peace & Joy Stamp Set. It was stamped in Real Red Ink, fussy cut, and attached with a thin strip from the edge of Dimensionals.

I was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches.
