I used the canvase impression plate on the vintage cream cardstock, but it didn't show up in the photo. Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.

Christmas Holly
The challenge this week at Merry Monday is to create a Christmas card with holly on it. I had an idea in my head, but when I went to execute it, the final product didn't appeal to me. I had stamped a holly image using an old, wood mounted, rubber stamp and used my Copics. However, the coloring seemed off compared to the stamped sentiment. I tried to fix it with my colored pencils. Still no luck. So I experimented with one of the small holly leaves from Holly Jolly and stamped each leaf with Simply Chartreuse. Much better. I managed to salvage the card.
