Christmas Holly

Here is my card for the Bah-Humbug Challenge which can be found here.

The card uses the lovely Holly Tumble paper designed by the talented Glenda Waterworth.



The paper was available as a free download from here and here is the address of her blog too.

The wreath is made from punched petals and leaves mounted onto pearlescent card that is coloured with fired brick distress ink.



You can't see in the photo but there are images of pine cones on the facing panels. These were stamped in cranberry adirondack ink and embossed using clear embossing powder for a subtle look.
