More Simple Christmas Cards.....

Hiya everyone, welcome back to my little corner of blogland, for
just a quick post ;-)
Got a couple more Christmas cards to show you tonight..... again, just very clean and simple design.
I bought this set of holly stamps from the internet, but don't know who the maker is, sorry, isn't it a lovely design though??




The card is a 6" x 6"  square, so you can see the holly stamp is quite large.




I used Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA for the berries.



I'm a bit fed-up with this one, as I've not lined up the top layer properly. I'll rectify it with my steel rule and a sharp blade.





Same stamp, different sentiment, and red 'jewels' for berries.





The holly bush in our garden is a varigated specimen, so I've added yellow Promarker to leaves on my image.   The berries are fantastic at the moment, birds are loving them ;)




The spotty card is from old stash, but I thought it matched the holly stamp perfectly

Hope you've enjoyed looking at tonight offerings, would love it if you could leave a comment. 
Catch you tomorrow,
Barbara
