Joy, Joy, Joy

 A friend of mine posts a weekly sketch challenge and I really wanted to do this one. 

I die cut a pile of Christmas images - pinecones, leaves, branches and berries. Once they were all assembled, I created the multiple layers for the background and placed the elements where I wanted. I used Press 'n Seal to pick up everything and add glue to the pieces. That was all placed on the patterned paper. The sentiment was embossed in three shades of red and added to the centre with foam tape. I used a white gel pen to add details to the berries and a green marker to add details to some of the leaves. 

Enjoy,
