Just Us Girls #210 Technique challenge DIE INLAY

I decided to go with the Christmas theme, as the die I chose to fit this challenge, is JOY, from Memory Box. The DP is from GKD as well as the Penguin stamp. He is so cute sitting on top of the "O". I paper pieced the hat and the scarf, but I wanted some texture on the scarf, so I ran that thru my Big Shot with a folder that had a small pattern. Can you see it? It was not easy! The spellbinder curved borders was used on the white and DP layers.
Then I was able to make another card with the die cut from the blue.


Thanks for taking the time to stop and look. Hope you have a nice day. I am awaiting a visit from an old friend and there will be lots of laughter in my day.
