Merry Sentiment

Hello All,

For today I am entering challenge from The Paper Players and CAS on Friday. Christmas is just a heartbeat away, so I better get into high gear. Here is my card for today. Enjoy!


I chose black for my background to contrast the modern element (black) with traditional Christmas elements (holly). The best part, it only took me thirty minutes to produce.
The holly stamp was embossed with white and then colored in using white pigment ink and an aqua pen. The 'splatters' were stamped using the same pigment that I used to color stamp and color the holly. 
You may not see it in the picture but I diecut the sentiment with adhesive fun foam. I chose to use the sticky side to adhere to the letters, not the card. I used liquid adhesive to attach the foamy letters to the card base. The liquid gave me some time to move around the letters to achieve alignment. Worked beautifully! 
Challenges Entered:

Thank you so much for stopping by and I do appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to spend time with me. I hope you all have a fantastic day and lots of good crafting vibes headed your way.
