Jesus in the manager

Today at Catch the Bug is Thursday, Oldie but Goodie. For my card I used, Christmas word - Jesus. I distressed my patterned paper and added some turquoise snowflakes with bling. I like the non-traditional Christmas colors which are the Christmas Card Throwdown colors for this week.

Wishing you a joyful Christmas

I am trying to keep up with the goal of doing several Christmas cards each month, but I have to make up for the beginning months when I didn't get some completed. This is a stamp called Make it Snappy - JOY from Bugaboo and the color scheme from Color Throwdown.
