I used the new set Holly Wreath for both of my cards. The first one uses one of the beautifully fonted sentiments with a faux quilted bg that I created using my Scor-Pal and a stylus to burnish the back. That gives the diamonds a "puffy" look.
For my second card I created a faux door to hang my wreath on using a Wood embossing folder by Sizzix. The wreath was colored with Copics.
Here's a look at the inside of the card. I cut a trio of Holly leaves from the wreath and added it to the sentiment flag.
If you haven't checked each one of these DT's blogs, you better hop right on over there. They are just super full of inspiration!!

I really like the old-fashioned traditional look of the panelled door, but wow, Tosh - that quilted card is totally stunning. Thanks for the explanation of how you created the puffy look - just like an old-fashioned eiderdown quilt.
