I just got the Plaid Background stamp set and had made the green panel playing with it. When I saw Karen's card, I thought it would be perfect for it.
With my pine branch and cone, I inked up the stamp, spritzed it with water, and stamped for a more watercolor look. I heat embossed the sentiment - I just love the font of this Merry Christmas from one of my oldest SU stamp sets!
Thanks for looking!

Oh, yes, that font of the sentiment stamp is a wonderful one. Now, I want that set! Your watercolored bough with pinecone looks great with the plaid background stamp.

This is a beautiful Case of Karen's card! Your plaid background is wonderful! I've been looking at that stamp as well and I think you have convinced me to make the order!

Wow, 3 cards!!! I know what you mean about wanting to case more than one of Karen’s cards!
Had you not mentioned the Plaid bg was a stamp, I would’ve thought it was DP!!
Terrific pinecone & evergeen branch; love the look of the natural CS with flecks of texture. Beautiful CASE!

Catherine, I am so surprised and pleased to see you made a 3rd card- wow! And what a gorgeous Christmas card this is too. You have certainly impressed me with this incredible plaid bg my friend- I am stunned you made this yourself. Your pine branches and 3D pinecone look gorgeous on this rustic white bg and the hint of gold matting with the gold embossed sentiment gives this card that look of elegance I love so very much! Thank you for playing along so many times today- I am so pleased and delighted by this. Hugs! ~Karen.
