The background is made with SSS Falling Snow stencil, covered with white embossing paste. Once dry, it was cut to size. A simple sentiment (MFT Snowglobe Sentiments - retired) was stamped to add another pop of red.
This card has paper piecing, die-cutting, stenciling, embossing paste, and heat embossing.
Thanks for stopping by!

Love the use of the patterned paper with the die cut! Great CAS card!
What a pretty card Loll, I love the "snow" in the background. I also love that pattern paper you used for the holly leaves. Works so great! Makes for a pretty holiday card for sure. Hugs, Brenda
This is fabulous, Loll and now I realise I don't have to do fussy cutting to participate in the paper piecing challenge... phew! And since I didn't get around to participating in last month's beautiful colour challenge maybe I can combine the two!
Wow!!!! Fabulous paper pieced die cut holly, my friend. I have that die...hmmmmm...you always inspire me, Lolly:-) TFS Love and Hugs..Nancy
love the way you paper pieced your holly - so pretty!
These papers work perfectly with this holly die, Lolly! A beautiful Christmas card, my friend!
Cute holly and berries Christmas card. Bonus that no fussy cutting was needed! Great choice of pattern papers.
This holly branch with the berries sitting on the wonderful textured falling snow background looks fantastic Loll, and love the papers you have used for the leaves and berries. The brown card is the perfect colour for the stem, and I also love the crystal glaze to add shine to the berries, and finished with a lovely coordinating red sentiment.
wonderful way to use your die cut, saves all that fussy cutting :) love the card.
What an awesome result with your paper piecing Loll - a fabulous card
Stay safe
Blessings

Stunning Loll. cas at it's best.
I wouldn't think of using this die for this technique. But luckily you thought about it, it looks incredibly beautiful! Big wow! I love the beautiful pattern on the holly leaves.

Loll, I love this card. As my eyesight is beginning to change and small detail work is no longer something I can feel good about, I’m looking for ways to continue creating cards. This is a perfect way to do that. Thank you for presenting such a beautiful card AND for giving me an idea of how I can continue to do something I love. Thank you !!
Loll, I adore Holly and their berries! You've made them even more beautiful with your lovely choice of patterned papers! Really beautiful!

Wow, this is really cool, I love the paper piecing and all the added texture from the designer paper! And I love how big the holly are! Fabulous card, Loll!!
Beautiful CAS card, Loll. The paper piecing is lovely. xx
In my opinion all holly should look just like this! So gorgeous, bright, and cheery, Loll!
Just wonderful, what a good idea xx
What a pretty holly branch with shiny berries, Loll! Love your choice of patterned paper for the holly and berries. The falling snow in the background looks wonderful!

What a brilliant idea, Loll ... your holly and those rich shiny berries look gorgeous in their pp attire ... so fresh and crisp against the snow! Hugs, Anita :)
TERRIFIC idea, and a new way to paper piece! Great card, Loll
This is late, but I've kept it in my inbox to say a quick thank you, Lolly. It is superb and I'm definitely going to copy it for a few Christmas cards. Paper-piecing is fiddly, but when my back is better, I know I'm going to love playing with this stamp in this way! Mwah! Love, Dolly
