Another fun challenge at this week's Merry Monday #96 - Use Holly! Another tough one for our current stamps, but I couldn't resist going back to this retired sentiment - seemed perfect!
I ended up making the holly sprigs using my old Stocking Accents die - I'm pretty sure that's retired, too, but I never let my dies go!
When it came to the envelope, I finally realized that I could sponge my holly shapes with the leftover pieces from the die - I really like this stenciled look!
