I used the closest colors I had to rose red, hello honey and garden green. I started out making the plaid paper, then made a smooshed watercolor BG using antique linen distress ink and added some Heidi Swapp gold color shine. The berries were stamped, masked, the holly added, also masked and the pine stamped. The panel was framed with pure poppy and placed on the plaid base. I added the sentiment and a few sequins. It's an honor to be one of the guest designers for the CC this month.

These plaids you make are just outstanding! I like the country feel this adds to your card, and I know that watercolor background is lovely - I can see a bit of the shimmer. Glad to see you on the design team, Sue!
