I actually did the FUSION this time - being inspired by the photo AND using the sketch - yay for me!!
I recently purchased these lovely stamps and coordinating dies from Papertrey Ink - called Spruce and Sprigs and was happy to get to use them on my card today. The sentiment is from another new PTI set called Joyful Christmas.
I used oval Nestabilities to cut the background out of this pretty dotted burlap patterned paper and a slightly larger framing out of Scarlet Jewel cardstock. I stamped the sentiment directly onto the paper and layered the die cuts with foam dots.
On the inside - I used another sentiment from Joyful Christmas and one of the berry die cuts from Spruce and Sprigs.

I love this PTI set and can't wait until I can own it myself - every time I go to order it, either the stamps or dies are out of stock. Your card is gorgeous, Julia. The polka dots work so well with the berries.
