A big congrats to Jennifer, the newest Featured Stamper (FS860)! She's a scrapper w/ a lot of beautiful pages. After much browsing, I chose THIS page to case. I kept the Christmas theme & most of the layout, but changed it to an A2 card, used different paper & dies & simplified it to fit the space.
For my card, I used a mini slimline die to cut the lovely holly paper and also the wine red piece. On the red, I stamped some holly berries w/ Brilliance moonlight white ink. I used this ink because it dries faster than my pigment ink & it's also not quite as bright. I really didn't want the berries to stand out that much. A leftover diagonal strip along w/ 2 white glitter strips were added in between the red & the holly paper. A fancy oval die was used on the sea green & I fussy cut a red layer to go behind it. The Joy was die cut out of white glitter paper as were the 3 snowflakes.
Thanks so much for looking. It's on my blog w/ more pics & products: The Write Stuff

Beautiful card. I can see the layout/design from the inspiration page but your card has such a different look. Love that beautiful holly paper and how you tied in the red panel with the stamped berries. Big kudos on your fussy cutting that red frame around your fancy die cut -- I thought it was die cut too til I read your description. Wonderful CASE and a Wonderful Card.
Julie, this is a great case of Jennifer's inspiration layout. I love the combination of designer papers you used. The snowflakes are so pretty and the sentiment layer is beautiful with the red backing. Perfect fussy cutting!

Such a lovey holiday card, Julie! I love the DSP and tiny diagonal striped piece! The berries are wonderful on the red and I like the fancy sentiment piece!
