The Holly and the Ivy,,,,,,,,,,,

Again I used the Blended Season stamp set but I used the Stamparatus to guide my design. I also used the new Glimmer paint, although it's not so new.  I'm glad to see the 3 colours come back.

I started by stamping "Merry Christmas" on a 4 by 5" piece of Whisper White card stock, and used the Stamparatus to stamp the Holly and the Ivy above and below the sentiment. This image was then die cut using the stitched framelit (second largest). Blendabilities were used to colour the images- Call Me Clover, Real Red, Sea Foam Green. A bow made with 1/8" Call Me Clover ribbon was added below the lower holly and ivy and a touch of shimmer paint was applied to the non Holly berries with dots gently touched on the red berries.

This I matted with a larger glimmer paper framelit.  The two were adhered together using tombo glue ( which is the only adhesive that will adhere glimmer paper to another paper) and adhered to the card front using dimensionals.

The basic top fold card front of  "Call Me Clover"  card  is matted with  Whisper White embossed with the Stripes and Scallops embossing folder.
