Happy Friday everyone! We’re back with one more feature from the Newton’s Nook Holiday Release! It’s another addition to the long images that fit the Bookmark dies. These don’t have to be used with them, of course, but they fit perfectly.

Something about this holly image had this design popping in my head the moment I saw it. So naturally I immediately started stamping and coloring away. Then I used the coordinating dies to cut them all out. After arranging them on a blank card base to see how they would fit, I started on my background.

I used light gray ink of the Music stencil for a subtle texture in the background. Then I went around the edges just a bit more with the gray ink for some depth. Then I stamped my sentiment ink the center and started adding the holly images with foam squares.

For finishing touches I added glossy accents to all of the berries, all the way around. I love this touch of shine on a serene feeling card. I really love how this one turned out!
