Ok, someone told me that mistletoe berries are actually white so I was trying to find something that would make them pop, and my liquid applique pen came to mind.
I initially stamped the mistletoe with my pearlx/luminere combo, let it dry and then sponged on some artichoke ink to make it pop. Then I added little dots with the liquid applique pen and heat set it to make them puff up. What I found was to make the dots way smaller than you actually want them because they puff up alot.

Very elegant, Tara! I really like it! I was surprised to learn that they were white, too. Apparently it depends on the geographic location as some are green and some are completely red, stems and all. (Isn't Google a great tool?)

love *everything* about this! the white border, the paper piercing around the ribbon, the mistletoe images as the background, the two kinds of ribbon - I LOVE it all!
