While browsing Christmas galleries, I came across this beautiful card made by JoBear2. CAS96 Vintage Peaceful Wishes by JoBear2 at Splitcoaststampers I pm'd her and she was so gracious in giving her permission to CASE it.
I did mine in pink and made it glittery because it will be for my mom this year who loves pink and glitter. I used the same stamp set, and the green ink for the foliage, and the way Jo had stamped the foliage from the corner. Also kept her placement of the bow, but a different ribbon and made mine a double. I used her idea for sponging and embossing, but tried to do that a little differently too. I also framed my image, though you can't really tell, and I used dimensional glue and pink sugar coating glitter on the berries and used brushable glue to add white glitter on the foliage for even more sparkle. I used different colored cardstock and changed the sentiment. Thanks again Jocelyn!
