Tried out this embossing folder for the first time, sponged the design with both Gable Green & Green Galore to pop the holly leaves. Dotted all the little berries with Liquid pearls in red. Stamped the image onto white gold cs, then colored with Smooch inks, watercolor pencils (skin & hair), and Spica glitter pen in lipstick for shoes, sash, & top of dress. Fussy cut image out, and mounted with dimensionals to card base. Printed sentiment on white gold cs using laser printer, then foiled with green foil. Cut to size, punched with decorative corner punch, and sponged with both green inks for emphasis. Glued sentiment to embossed cs, then wrapped organdy ribbon around. Made bow using bow easy, and used glue dot to add it to card. Accented sentiment with light & dark green rhinestones. Glued the card front to a nice sturdy base, and Voila! My Holly Fairy card.

Sweet! Congrats on doing a Falliday challenge. I really like this e.f. too! That is a lot of dotting with the red liquid pearls, but you did a super job doing them on this.

This is adorable! I love this sweet little girl, and your background is just superb! LOVE that you sponged the raised leaves for the color contrast, and I can't believe you dotted all the berries! Your effort paid off with this gorgeous card!
