Holly


Another card using the lovely CAS Colours and Sketches colours. My die-cut holly was water-coloured with Zig pens and Glossy Accents over the top, on a background of die-cut sentiments block (which is from a set of Sizzix thinlits called "Christmas Phrase Cards" #659973).

Also playing at:
CAS Watercolour - Christmas Florals and/or Greenery
Watercooler Wednesday - Masculine Anything Goes

Thank you for looking!

Fabulous CAS card Sue. Love the glossy leaves of your holly and how your 'peace' sentiment pops off your card. Thanks for joining us at the Watercooler Wednesday CHallenge this week. Tristan DT.

This shining holly takes center stage on this great card. The cut out background and the bright peace greeting are a beautiful design. Love this. The metallic holly card is also stunning.

Wonderful glossy holly! And a great idea to set it against the text die cut! Thanks so much for joining us at CAS Watercolour.

WOW! You've created a second stunning card with our challenge colors! The glossiness of the holly helps it stand apart from the sentiment, and both are perfect against the white-on-white background. Would you mind sharing the source for the sentiment die? Thanks for playing along with us again this week at CC&S! :)

Wow I do love the text die behind the holly.
The holly looks like glass with the Glossy Accents, which it the effect that you wanted.
