Hello it is Lisa here, and I can not tell you how excited I am to be here today sharing my first post as part of the Marker Pop Design Team! eeeeekkk!!!  As I’m sure you’ve seen there are lots of new Holiday images making their debuts.  I’ve chosen a classic and elegant wreath image by Penny Black called Poinsettia Wreath for today’s card.  This stamp set is so beautifully detailed that you can’t help but have fun when coloring, or in this case, watercoloring it in.

To create this card I started by stamping the wreath in the center of a piece of Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor Cardstock with Versafine ink.  Once the ink had dried I used various Distress Markers (Pine Needles, Peeled Paint, Shabby Shutters, Festive Berries, Barn Door, Fired Brick, Tattered Rose, and Mustard Seed) and Ranger Artist Brushes (Round 2 and 6).  When the entire panel was dry I used the largest die in the Lawn Fawn Cut STAX Small Stitched Rectangles to trim the panel down and add stitched lines.  I then popped the panel up with foam adhesive onto Lawn Fawn Cardstock in Red, and finished it all off with some Pretty Pink Posh Mixed Sparkling Clear Sequins.

Thanks so much for visiting today and I can’t wait to be back here next week!

Happy Crafting!
