I began by blending some red and green distress oxide through a big one inkable. I took the foam layer off my stamp press and was able to use 4 magnets on the base to keep the inkable still enough to blend one handed.
Next I stamped the small holly leaves from the christmas pud set to stamp randomly over the background using old paper distress oxide.
On some smooth card I stamped two of the baubles using memento ink and coloured them with alcohol markers. Then I cut them out.
Using a ruler and a fine liner I added some threads to hang the baubles from. I did one straight line then went over twoce more in a doodle art style.
I added the background to a green 5x7 card then added the baubles using sticky pads.
On a scrap of white card I stamped and cut out the sentiment in Versafine Clair Strawberry.
Finally, I added this to the card with foam pads too.
Here's another version using a different inkable and coloured base card.
I used:
Doodle Art Baubelicious stamp set
Inkables Big ones - I used Pearls for the first and circles for circles for the second
Distress Oxide ink - I used Lumberjack Plaid, Rustic Wilderness and Old Paper
Memento Black ink
Alcohol markers
Thanks for looking!

You have made a beautiful card and I love your resourcefulness with a stamp positioner and magnets to do it one handed Sally, and the baubles are so bright and pretty over the top..I love the way you have made that wonderful bit of colouring on your cast. Hope it won't be long before you will be free of it. x
