I change the holly to evergreen boughs and stamped them 3 times instead of just once. I sponged the edges instead of using a stitched die and also added some splatters of white paint to mimic the look of snow.
thanks for looking,

Such an alluring card! I am drawn into the beauty of the evergreens and the refreshing chill in the air depicted by your scene. The bright green adds a surprising touch of cheer and happiness.

Beautiful card, Karen! I love the look you achieved with the evergreen boughs--just lightly misted. The sponged blue edges are so pretty with the green!
