I stamped the image using markers directly to stamps and then sponged around image lightly with red ink. Added a light coat of glossy accents - forgetting it spreads the ink a bit more - but quite liked how it looked so ran with it!
TFL!

Sue, this is so petty!!! Love how you used the sketch, and I love your red cardinals in the tree. Your color palette is wonderful (kinda soft) and your pearls make such a lovely trimming! Beautiful Christmas card!!!
