This card is another favorite, probably because of the woodgrain in the background. Hardwood is by far my favorite background stamp! For this card, I inked it with Crumb Cake and then stamped off before stamping the card. It gives a very subtle woodgrain that doesn't detract from the main focal point, the wreath. And speaking of the wreath, can I just say how much I love the wreath bundle of stamps and framelits? There is a little tab on all the layers of stamp AND on the framelits. It makes perfectly lining up everything a piece of cake!
For this card, I used Pear Pizzazz, Old Olive, and Cherry Cobbler. I love these three colors together. The wreath is topped of with a simple bow made of Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding ribbon. If you wanted to jazz up the wreath a bit, you could add a dot of Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details on each berry.
This card could be made in more color combinations than I can count. I like the traditional Christmas colors, but this same card would be gorgeous in just about any color combination. Give it a try!

ReplyDeleteI think there is going to be some kind of sale next week, but I have no idea about the details or if this would be included. How great would that be, though? :)
