Cattail Designs: Playing with Holly Happiness

I've been playing with this pretty little set and it's punch lately. I'm working on finishing up the rest of my cards so I can get them sent. Today I made 2 with the same set, similiar cards, but I love this one the best. I think because it has more contrast. I also love the double stitched framelit.

On both cards I embossed and softely sponged on a bit of Garden Green on the holly leaves. My other color here is Rich Razzleberry. I stamped the bow using Rich Razzleberry onto the same color CS and punched it out. I added a rhinestone for sparkle.
Here is the second card.

I used Sweet Sugarplum on this one. It is the same color as Rich Razzleberry, just a much lighter shade. They actually look great together. I used the Layered framelits for my larger oval on this and did the same sponging. The Merry is from the Christmas Greetings Thinlit dies, and then I used just the Christmas from Banners for Christmas.

I hope you enjoyed. Thanks for stopping by.
