Well I do happen to have a few wreath's in my collection (hahaha!!), so the only struggle with this challenge was which one to use? A stamp? A die? Hmmmmmmm…
I finally decided on an oldie but a goodie from Reverse Confetti Wreaths Confetti Cuts. I cut one using kraft ink that I had stamped first with SU!'s Sheet Music background stamp, and then cut another of the wreaths from just plain kraft cs. I left the inside of the piece of the wreath that I had cut with the music to go along with my sentiment of the Christmas Carol "Joy To The World". My sentiment comes from WPlus9's A Hand Lettered Holiday stamp and die set. The Poinsettia is a Gina Marie Designs die and the couple pine sprigs I added are from Penny Blacks new Christmassy die set. I finished with a simple piece of jute twine at the top.
LOTS of beautiful inspiration to inspire you to play along with this month's challenge...you can check it all out right HERE. This challenge is open till the 24th of this month.
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
Such a gorgeous Christmas card, Marcia! I love the combination of kraft, red, and white! The subtle music background inside the wreath really compliments the sentiment, and I love that poinsettia! I'm sure you did have a struggle deciding which wreath to use - you are my go-to for any wreath inspiration!

Your card is lovely, all the details just make the message stand out beautifully~
ReplyDeleteMarcia, yes! I love that joy sentiment so much! I also adore that RC wreath die and the lovely music paper inside the wreath. This card is perfection!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the music note background and the focal image off to the side like that. This card is stunning my friend!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful wreath card Marcia. I like the way you used the music background and the two layers of the RC wreath die cuts. I have that die also and need to use it more. Thanks for the inspiration. Have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteWonderful card!! I love the design!
ReplyDeleteI love the design and the color palette of the card, Marcia! Stamping the music sheet inside the wreath is a fantastic idea! White, Kraft, and Red create a very warm feeling. It looks like you sponged the pine needles and the leaves. That's a very nice finishing touch. Thanks so much for sharing this beauty at CAS Christmas!
