I designed this Leaves of Holly Christmas card for my Stamp Club in August.  We do one technique card each month, and this was it.  I called it Double Embossed Vellum.  Use Foam Adhesive Strips on the frame to pop it up so you can see the beautiful Boughs of Holly paper through the vellum.

Leaves_of_holly_stampin_upColors: Evening Evergreen, Sahara Sand, Basic White (EP), Cherry Cobbler (Blends), Soft Suede (Blends)

Use your Blends to color the Textural Elements, but color slowly because the ink can bleed into the other areas when coloring on wood.  So, stop before the edge of your area and see how far the color bleeds forward before continuing.  I also added Wink of Stella on the berries after coloring.

Here are the sample and instructions I designed for our technique books.
