Winter Wreaths...
August 28, 2014
I combined the Merry Monday Challenge with the Paper Players sketch challenge. The Merry Monday challenge required making a card with a wreath on it and the Paper Players had a circle with a banner. Perfect!
I started off using the My Favorite Things winter wreath die to die cut 5 different wreaths out of various shades of green and one brown. I stacked them and set them off by adhering them to white CS. I added a layer of designer series Christmas paper behind the white. A quick sentiment and a button and I was done. I love the texture that I got from the layers of wreaths.
Happy all around with this card.
Enjoy!!
Supplies: CS: SU! pear pizzazz, old olive, garden green, always artichoke and Letters to Santa (retired) dsp. PTI kraft paper. Dies: MFT winter wreath. Stamps: PTI beautiful blessings – holiday. Ink: memento black. Embellies: SU! linen thread and red button from my stash.

Fabulous card, I love how you created your wreath. Thank you for joining us for Merry Monday.
