Happy Saturday. I am being inspired this am by the challenge at Splitcoast and the Pendleton Site. I saw a houndstooth jacket and so my card was born.
I began by stamping the houndstooth with Grey Memento ink and added it to my card front. The wreath is a digital image from Delicious Doodles. I printed it off, coloured it with Copic markers then added Glossy Accents to the red berries....they just shine IRL and have such a great texture.
I then stamped the sentiment from Hero Arts onto a piece of vellum so the houndstooth could still be seen behind. That's it. Pretty quick and easy.
I am adding my card to these challenges:
The Male Room- CHRISTMAS
Addicted to Stamps- INSPIRATION PHOTO
Brown Sugar- RED, WHITE AND GREEN
Use Your Stuff- RED AND WHITE
Sister Act- ANYTHING GOES
Many thanks for coming by and taking a look.
Supplies: stamps- Hero Arts, digi- Delicious Doodles/ Memento Bl./ Barn Red Distress ink/ Copic Markers/ pop dots/ Glossy Accents

This wreath is extraordinary! The coloring is out-of-this- world gorgeous as is every element.
Karen, I've been trying to get caught up on all the commenting I've missed but it's impossible. You my friend, deserve better from me. I see your cards and go "wow" all the time. This particular card drew me in because I wanted to see what 3D elements you've used on the wreath. Low and behold you have no 3D elements!
