Holly Squares 2 Ways

Welcome

I had fun making these cards using traditional colours....2 for the price of one using this newly released stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called:

HOLLY SQUARES

So, here's what I did to create my card.

• I began by cutting a piece of white cardstock and I masked around the berries as I wanted them to be bright red. I inked over the Holly Berries stencil leaves with some Lucky Clover and some Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide ink.
• I removed the masks that were around the berries and then inked them up with some Lumberjack Plaid DOX ink.
• Next, I took the stenciled panel and die cut it using this Poinsettia die.  I also cut a piece of dark red cardstock and gathered all the pieces together. 
• I did splatter some of the red pieces with my white Posca pen to add interest and I added a few more red dot berries to some of the open areas using the eraser on the end of a pencil.
• Using all the die cut pieces, I was able to reassemble them onto 2 white A2 sized card base fronts.
• I die cut the sentiment for both cards and then glued them onto the word shadows.
• I finished off my cards by adding the sentiments with some foam tape.

Here is the stencil I used:
