Berries Merry Christmas

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

We're having a nice taste of fall after highs in the 80's last week.

I LOVE IT!

Sweater weather!

This is a CASE of one of Michele's cards.

Her berries were purple, which I loved, but I went with red today.

I had to mimic her with the burlap embossing.  That made the card IMO.

I used Jen T's sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #758

Here's the sketch...

I find that I do much better with layering stencils if I use my Misti.  It makes

it much easier to get each layer lined up perfectly.

I did two (you'll see the other at a later date).  The first had a disastrous

splatter episode! Oy!

This time I used some chunky frantage embossing powder to add white specks.

Then I embossed it and the embossed bits flattened and look like perfect splatters,

which is something I seem to be incapable of doing!
