Starting early on Christmas cards. I got this image from an image swap. I used Mojo Monday 90 sketch.
The background is just swiped with my ink pad. There's a bit of piercing. The saying and holly leaf is popped up. The saying is cut out mostly with coluzzle and then cut around. The layer behind is 2 scallop ovals put together.
I colored with marker on the image a bit of brown and green. There's crystal effects on the river and the church roof.

Neat card! So many interesting things. Like how you did the sentiment by not completing the oval and cutting around the letters - that's clever! You have inspired me to try swipping my ink pad on my cards; that looks nifty. I imagine the Crystal Effects looks great IRL, hard to see in the picture, but that is a good idea! Good job with everything. TFS
I like how the main image is done in brown, giving it a vintage-picture look. The swiping of the pad on the background as well as the piercing are wonderful touches. TFS! :-) LM
