Peaceful

Good morning, everyone!  Sherry here with another holiday card for you.

I first die cut the Pinecone and Greenery from green card stock.  I wanted to create dimension and texture on the pinecone portion of this die, so I cut a small piece of brown card stock sized to die cut only the pine cone.  I cut another small piece of brown card stock, added it to a piece of double sided adhesive, then peeled off the top liner and adhered the die cut pinecone, leaving the open areas with the adhesive now exposed.  I trimmed out the pine cone, and sprinkled chestnut colored glitter onto the exposed adhesive, then glued the entire piece on top of the green pine cone. 

I die cut three of the Sketchbook Peace from cream colored card stock, stacked them on top of each other and covered the word with clear Wink of Stella.  I cut one layer from the Rectangle Layers set, and splattered Shabby Shutters ink onto the surface.  I used foam tape to mount that to the card front.  I added red gemstones for the berries.  I used foam tape behind only the pinecone to adhere it to the layered piece, then added the sentiment as shown.  I thought a little more greenery was in order, so I used two of the Garland Greenery cuts to add as filler.  

1I added a bow from some red sparkly embroidery thread, and then one more little gemstone to finish it off.   Hope you enjoy, and have a wonderful weekend!
