CC871 - HAPPY HOLLY-DAYS

Photo Details

Poster: Karen B Barber

I love holly - I love to color holly berries - this card was fun to make - I have wanted to use this Peaceful Deer dsp from Saleabration so fun for it to fit in well with this week's challenge. The hardest thing for me was staying awake long enough to post this - I have fallen asleep about 20 times. So I'm off to bed and please forgive if there are any senseless typos above, I will check it in the morning but I can't see straight at the moment. Happy Tuesday everyone!

Gorgeous holly and berries. Love how you accented with the mango color. Looks amazing on the plaid. Wonderful use of the challenge colors!

Karen, I adore this card. The gingham background sets off the white sentiment layer and holly layer perfectly. I love the tiny touches of mango in your pretty holly leaves.

Beautiful card, Karen, full of wonderful holly with just a touch of Mango Melody here and there! ;-) The DS paper and scallops are a great backdrop for the foliage and greeting!
