Holly



Hi everyone, I hope you are well.

I've made a one layer Christmas card today. The holly was stamped in black Archival and coloured with pencils. I've added some Glossy Accents for shiny berries and a sentiment from the Happy Little Stampers Mixed Christmas Sentiments set.



Linking up to a few challenges:
Merry Monday - Use Holly
Happy Little Stampers Sept CAS Challenge - Colouring
Time Out - Take Time Out to 'Make Your Mark'
Inkspirational - One Layer

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my blog. Have a lovely weekend! x

Classic and, oh so, perfectly colored. All that white space makes your holly pop.
