A big CONGRATS to Heidi, the newest Featured Stamper! What a big, beautiful gallery she has and I chose THIS card of hers to case. I kept the framed layout with sentiment below, but I used different images, different colors and I made mine a Christmas card.
After I colored the candle image w/ Copics, I had to do a little out of the box Nestie technique so the edges of the holly wouldn't be cut off by the rectangle die. And on the fancy red layer behind it, I used the Nestie resizing technique to make a rectangle out of a square die.
The greeting was die cut using the same die I used for its red tag shape then I cut around the greeting and attached it to the red tag.
Congrats again, Heidi, and enjoy your week! Thanks so much for looking and all the details along w/ the Copics I used are on my blog: The Write Stuff
