This was done for Lydia's first Falliday's challenge. I did color this with a lot of water last night and when if was finally dried the ends of the holly leaves were curled up so, I had the bright idea to tuck in some glue dots and run the whole card ( sans sentiment panel) through the big shot as is, it did flatten all those layers together so, I think this will survive through the mail now, and then I added the sentiment. Thanks for this challenge Lydia, & tfl.

I was foolish enough to pick a fussy fine detailed die for this technique and it needed a lot of gluing down after the fact! :-) Your poinsettia looks lovely in those colours and I love the dark spatter!

I love the watercolored Holly! The little extra splashes of red outside the berries really make your eye move around the whole card! Great idea to bigshot the whole thing!
