Had some background papers that I had made using the "cling wrap method" by Loll and distress inks sitting on my desk...so stamped the holly leaves in Versamark and silver embossed, die cut the sentiment 3 times and put it all together with some silver metallic paper and a white card base.
Entering this in Addicted to Stamps holiday challenge (thanks Barb for the suggestion).
Thanks for stopping by and your kind comments. Betty
A beautiful background and the holly and die cut are so pretty on it!
