I've used a digital image by IKEsART called "Holly" to make my Christmas card. I colored the image with Copics, adding some red liquid pearls and glossy accents to the holly in her hair. The sentiment was done with an unmarked wooden stamp I've had for years. I split a SU! gold foil doily and placed it on opposite corners for a touch of elegance. The stitched oval was done with a GinaMarieDesigns die, while the hunter green scalloped oval was done with a SB petite oval die. For the final touch I added some clear Nuvo Drops around the framed image.
I'd like to enter this into the April Rudolph Days challenge where it's always a Christmas theme.
Also adding to the JFF April 2019 challenge - add lace (doilies qualify)
Thanks for the visit, I hope your day is going well.

What a beautiful stamp this is. I love how you colored her. The hair looks wonderful and the holly in her hair is unusual and made a great Christmas card. The gold looks so pretty.
A fabulous Christmas card Carol, such a beautiful image.
