This is my One Plus Twelve card, first month of 2021! This was the brainchild of Kelly and she asked Jeanette and me to join her in this challenge in 2019. We are to use just one stamp, to make a card every month and post on the 3rd of each month. It was so much fun that the three of decided to continue for our third year and pick a new image to use.
For 2021, I picked a Gina K Designs set called Thankful Greenery. I think this set is so pretty and I can see in my mind many ways that I can use this image. Plus--I will have 12 thank you cards at the end of the year!

For my first card, I embossed the image with white embossing powder onto Crumb Cake cardstock. I then colored in the leaves and berries or flowers with my Copic Sketch markers. I layered the image on a layer of Garden Green. I used Gina K's Master Layouts 2 for an additional layer of Crumb Cake. The final scalloped layer is cut also cut from Garden Green from My Favorite Things Blueprints 20 and is layered on the same colored card base. The sentiment is from the same set. I also embossed with white and die cut with a banner from the same Master Layouts 2. I added a few cream colored enamel dots for the final touch!
Here is the inside of my card, with a strip of washi tape:
