Find the JOY in every Christmas moment.

Well hello friends!?
How was your week leading up to the big holiday?! 
Mine was BUSY!
{In a wonderful way}
But I wanted to take a moment to share a final little craft that I originally shared with 
{Everything Under the Moon's Christmas series}  
I also wanted to say a final Merry Christmas because I am headed HOME to spend time with my family and to just enjoy Christmas moments....
and that means that there will be a little bloggy break in store for me.

But for today....
I am excited to share my sweet and simple FINAL Christmas craft with you!


It was simple to make all you need is:


-shipping tags
-vintage printing press letters
-a versa mark ink pad
-embossing powder
-a normal ink pad
-a heating tool 
-ribbon
-a frame
-background scrapbook paper
-annnnnnd a typewriter (if you have one) 


All I did was stamp the JOY with normal ink followed by the clear versa mark ink.
Then sprinkle on embossing powder and heat it with the embossing tool until you have a nice shiny sheen to your letters!

I then added "joy to the world" under the JOY big letters with my typewriter---just because anything I make with my typewriter makes me super happy.

Then I just added ribbon, to the tags and just stuck the tags to the glass of the frame with glue dots!


Sweet and simple----
I think that is what holiday decor is all about!

And once again, I hope you have a VERY Merry Christmas
& please know how very THANKFUL I am for each and every one of you-my blog friends NOW and ALWAYS!
