Sparkle Spuce and Holly ~ CCMC589, CASCS349

Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Create With Connie and Mary's new color challenge.  Our colors this week are Coastal Cabana, Real Red and Shaded Spruce.  I also used the sketch from CAS Colours and Sketches Challenge #349 to help me along with my design team card.  

I used the spruce sprigs from Peaceful Boughs to create my background panel.  After I stamped it on Shaded Spruce cardstock, I ran it through the Big Shot with my Subtle EF.  I stamped the "Deck the Halls" stamp from Christmas Gleaming in real red and also stamped the "splatters" in Coastal Cabana on my main panel of Whisper White.  I layered it on a Gold Foil piece for some added shine.  I colored the holly stamp from Christmas Gleaming with my Light Bermuda Bay Blends marker, and Dark and Light Shaded Spruce, and also the Light and dark Real Red.  I fussy cut them out and adhered them around the main panel.  I added a few Gold Glimmer Enamel Dots to the main panel and also added some Ice Stampin' Glitter to the holly leaves for extra shimmer and sparkle!  

The whole thing is layered on a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock and then layerd on a base of white.  

Thanks for taking a peek!
