This card is for the Fred She Said Blog Hop starting today. I just have to admit that I forgot all about it and made this card last night in about 2 hours! Yes ladies...2 hours. That includes the detailed inside and the envelope!!! lol
Of course, this is a pre-colored image so that saved me some time. I cut out the holly and layered it on the wreath for dimension. Then I smooched the berries and stickled the leaves and greenery. The Martha Stewart deep edger double loop punch was used in the background and Spellbinders Large round scalloped Nestiabilities. I also used a glittered green fern behind the wreath and a nice big bow.
The punch count is pretty high on this one as I got the new MS Holly punch and made a border on the inside of the card.
15 Border punches
10 Holly Branches
