Method

Ink the Hero Arts holly stamp with a green Tombow pen and stamp it on a piece of white card. Colour the holly berries of the stamp with a red pen. Add crystal glitter glue to the background areas of the holly design.

When this is dry cut around it leaving approximately 2mm white border all round (1/8 in).

Cut a rectangle of green corrugated card to 48mm wide by 42mm high (2 x 1¾ ins). Mount the holly design in the centre of this with adhesive.

Mount the corrugated card on the greeting card with adhesive, using the illustration as a guide.

Make a border of chain stickers around the corrugated card. It actually uses the bit left between the chains. Add small red dots with a Tombow pen.

Ink the Hero Arts Season's Greetings stamp with a green Tombow pen and stamp it on the card beneath the corrugated rectangle.
