I've been wanting to play along with a couple of challenges and finally got a card done for them!
I gold embossed the holly stamp onto watercolor paper. I water colored the leaves and berries with watercolor paints and then did a watercolor wash in blue around the holly. I layered the panel to a slightly larger piece of brushed gold paper and layered that onto my card base with foam dots. I gold embossed the sentiment directly on the card base below the panel.
I'm linking my card to:
I'd say my card is Clean Mixed Media?!
Paper: Water color paper - Ranger, Brushed Gold - SU, White - PTI
