Ever have one of those days where things go wonky time after time? Well, I was having one of those days yesterday! I already adhered my frame to a white card and then decided to stamp the hanger for the ornament - bad idea! Should've masked the white above the frame - some ink, even though I had wiped it off, got on it!! So, I carefully peeled off the frame and put it aside while I masked a new card where I didn't want the hanger, then stamped the hanger and sentiment, and THEN added the frame. Worked much better that way! I had to wait til this morning to finish my card because I wanted to inlay some glitter paper into the ornament outline. The paper was a bit shabby so I added Stickles which needed to dry. Better to get a photo of my card in the morning light anyway. I read on Bonnie's blog here that Poppystamps has a frame challenge so I'm entering my card there too!

your ornament has a stained glass look - very lovely!
A lovely card indeed Linda!!
So pretty Linda. Love that black scalloped frame. And your ornament is gorgeous. What a great way to spruce it up with stickles. I have done exactly what you did ... glued something down and then decided to stamp right up to it. I have ripped apart things many times. :) Glad you stuck with it, because your card is gorgeous. Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Christmas!
A stunner, Linda - love the touches of red glitter and the black and white make the red pop! Good luck this weekend, and have fun!
Love your holiday card; beautiful stained glass effect! Thank you so much for participating in Poppystamps "Framed" Challenge!
