H is for holly

    I matted and layered white card onto gold mirri and then white card. The holly swirls were cut out using a die from Sheena Douglass's Deck the Halls collection, stamped using the coordinating stamp and coloured using Promarkers. The sentiment was stamped using a stamp from the same set and I added six red gems to finish the card.
