As soon as I saw this sketch I knew which stamp set I wanted to use! I got this Close to My Heart set a few years ago and had hardly used it, but it was perfect for my Christmas card:
I stamped the foliage on a Basic White panel using Shaded Spruce, Soft Sea Foam and Real Red inks (the pink images are stamped second-generation in Real Red), then added a glimmer diecut sentiment from the same set:
