Love these colors that Mary picked this week! And making them Christmas colors was even more fun. I used the Granny Apple Green Stampin' Blends markers where I could, then color matched the Berry Burst And Smoky Slate using Copic markers.
The sentiment is stamped in the Berry Burst and then heat embossed over it in clear. I used Granny Apple green and a sponge dauber to add the soft stripes in the background.

Ah, Jeanne, how adorable! Not just the beautifully colored pup, but the large rectangle, silver thread, and sponged green stripes. Very creative and it all goes together with perfection!
