Mistletoe

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Another Christmas card for the stash.


I die cut this fabulous mistletoe from Neenah Solar White cardstock and colored
with Copic markers.  I layered two branches for depth and cut the berries from
white glitter paper and colored them with the light green Copics.

The sentiment was done the same way and all was placed on an embossed background.

Challenges:
Inkspirational #293 - Christmas in July
Memory Box Outside the Box - It's Not Easy Being Green

Bonnie, you are well on your way to filling your list for Christmas! I love this Mistletoe - colored such a beautiful green. I really need to remember that one can color glitter paper - it's gorgeous!

The way you colored this makes that mistletoe just pop off that card. The white gel pen really made this one. You have such a knack for presenting your dies in such a beautiful way and this is no exception!

The coloring on the mistletoe is fabulous, Bonnie. I need to try that on mine instead of using cardstock. Glitter berries all the way!

Fabulous card, Bonnie. Love the mistletoe die with the glittery berries. It looks great against the leafy embossing folder.
