Merry Monday #102


Happy Monday friends.  This week's Merry Monday challenge is to use Mistletoe on your Christmas card.


I used the Mistletoe and Holly set by Papertrey Ink.  Love the ghost stamping technique and it was perfect for this mistletoe.  For the berries I used a circle punch and added glossy accents over them for shine.

Here is another one just for fun.
