A card for Merry Monday #96 and Freshly Made Sketches #124. I started by stamping the holly leaf first and then the sentiment. I die cut a red stitched square to frame the holly panel. Then I cut the panel into three, somewhat, equal pieces and arranged then onto to the frame. I tied the twine and added some dimension to the back of the frame before adhering it to the card base. The card base is grey which might not seem very Christmas-y, but it made the panel pop so much more than white.
What do you think?
Gorgeous! LOVING how you added the sequins as berries!!!!
