I stamped the gingerbread man and holly in Nocturne ink and embossed with clear embossing powder.  I them masked both images and stamped the cup image, also in Nocturne ink, and embossed that image with clear embossing powder.   I colored the masked image with alcohol markers and fussy-cut it out.  I then stamped the sentiment with watermark ink on the dron if the cup and embossed with white detail embossing powder.

I stenciled the Pine Sprig Doily stencil onto a card base front with complimentary ink colors and then splattered with metallic watercolors with a fan brush. 

I adhered the image to the card front with foam tape and then added some shimmer to the holly leaves and berries.  For a final touch I added Glossy Accents to the berries for more dimension.
