This card is for the Weekly Alphabet challenge. Wow! -- It was a surprise challenge this week as we wait the start of Round 3 in January 2012. The challenge is to redo one of our favorite alphabet cards from this year. Well, I joined in with the letter V, so I didn't have too many to choose from. I wanted to go with my Letter W card because I need more Christmas cards. It is way up there on the favorite list because I love this silhouette stamp set and I was so excited to use three cardstock colors with W names. To change it up, I decided to use this week's sketch challenge for the redo of my "W is for Wise Men" card. I wasn't sure I could make the sketch work with this stamp. It turned out to work very well. I even added the word Wonderful from the Warm Words stamp set. Wonderful starts with a W after all. The familiar scripture verse used at Christmas - Isaiah 9:6 speaks of Jesus who the Wise Men went to worship and it says that His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor (see below).
We welcome you to join in on Round 3 coming Jan 4, 2012. It's as easy as ABC. TFL ~ Diane
Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Great card and Have to say I can't say what one I like better. They are different and both very nice. I do love that stamp. I often do not know what to do with a solid stamp.. so have to file that in my memory file.. It is amazing to me so many designs can come from stamp or idea.. such fun.. hope you have a Blessed Christmas
