Today I have used a Penny Black stamp from 2000.
I use it so much on plain inserts inside Christmas cards and I thought I would let
it shine on the outside instead.
I really played around with my copics on those leaves I used
YG 03- 11
G21 - 28 - 62
Y21
W1
C3
and I am very pleased with the result.
Was going to 3D the leaves as well as the berries but ended up painting them with
smooch glitz instead.
I shaded the background with W1,
edged the border with YR31 then with crystal stickles.
Am entering this in:

Just keep on creating - Christmas
Thank you for dropping in you are most welcome.
