Using Layered Laurel Stamp Set and Frosty Pink ink, stamp leafy images creating a tone-on-tone technique for a soft, subtle background pattern.
Press the Berry Whisper Plate
Ink the Berry Whisper Press Plate with Jet Black Ink.
Press onto the card front three branches for a bold, rich black design.

Add the Sentiment
Die cut “Peace & Joy” from Timeless Sentiments 3 Die Set using gold glitter cardstock and black foam.
Stack and adhere for a raised, dimensional look before adhering it to the card front.
Embellish the Berries
Apply Nuvo Crystal Drops Morning Dew over the berry elements for a glossy, glass-like finish.
Add Sparkle
Finish with gold embellishments from the Metallic Gold & Silver Gem Sparkles set for an extra touch of holiday shine.

Design Notes
This design is perfect for batch-making your Christmas cards because it’s quick but has a beautiful, high-end feel thanks to the press plate texture and dimensional sentiment.
🎄 Pro Tip: Swap the gold glitter sentiment for silver or even matte black for a completely different look while using the same layout!
