MCV80 - Merry (Mandala) Christmas

Good morning! I'm here to remind you of this month's MCV Challenge, where Kimberly has given us this fun wreath as our inspiration:

I focused on Kimberly's:
-wreath
-colours
-black sentiment
-dark background

I made my wreath by stamping the mandalas in Catherine Pooler Inks (Lime Rickey and Fiesta Blue). I masked a circular centre and then used a waterbrush to spread the colours.

Once it was dry,  I stamped the berries in Rockin' Red, and filled in all the little green points with a tiny heart stamp. I finished by stamping the sentiment in Midnight and adding some Stickles for sparkle.

I used:

Concord & 9th Clear Stamps, Many Mandalas
