Holly and Pearls


I had waited patiently for this Holly die from Taylored Expression because it was on a back order but it was well worth the wait.
I cut it first in green and then in white, I know it was a bit of waste but I was tight with time and I wanted to make a card so I cut out the centre to give me the perfect size white frame to lay over the top.
I had a fight with my red Liquid Pearls but has you can see I won.
The centre is a smaller one of the Floral Ovals with the Simon Says Stamps sentiment die. It actually quite quick when the Liquid Pearls behave.
