Good Merry Monday morning!
This week our challenge is brought to you by our fantastic former
Merry Maker, Katie. Miss you Katie.
You know I love this challenge!
And I had bookmarked this card by my friend Heather Telford.
She always inspires me with her watercolor techniques!
I used the holly from a new Stampin' Up! set called Embellished Ornaments.
I love every stamp in this set!
I inked the holly with Garden Green and stamped on a piece of Mixed Media paper
then used my Aqua Painter to move the color.
I used a Cherry Cobbler marker to color the berries
and stamped this fantastic sentiment from my Happy Little Stampers
Mixed Christmas Messages set.
A snippet of red twine and embossed rectangles finished this off.
If you want to see some other fantastic inspiration using the
Happy Little Stampers sets, do check out the Blog Hop over there.
If you follow the blog hop and comment on each entry, you have a

and don't forget Happy Little Stampers CAS Challenge
I hope you'll try a watercolor technique on a Christmas card
and join us at Merry Monday.
And be sure to go check out all the fantastic cards from the Design Team.
They are bound to inspire you!
I apologize for not getting around to your blogs like I'd like to.
Sometimes life gets busy and time gets short.

Meanwhile, thanks for stopping by.
