A Wreath for Rudolph Days

Hi there.  I'm glad you stopped in!

It's time for another Rudolph Days Challenge.


Our friend Maureen (Scraps of Life by Scrappymo) host this challenge
every month from the 25th to the end of the month to help us build
a stash of Christmas cards through the year.  We can make anything we want
as long as it's Christmas.

A sweet friend sent me this beautiful wreath die cut a while back.
I love the simple design and the size of it.

I adhered it onto a piece of embossed cardstock and die cut
a sentiment to go with it.

I found a piece of plaid ribbon in my stash and added it along
with some Nuvo Crystal Drops.

Easy peasy with the help of my friend!

How's your Christmas stash coming along?

I love how clean and crisp this is and the rich contrast of the dark green and white. How wonderful to use up ribbon too, something we all have too much of. Love the tiny berries you added with the Nuvo drops too! Great card, Bonnie!

Love this card...the embossed background with my fave SU 3D and that rich color of SU Shaded Spruce--2 things I bought awhile ago after seeing them on some of your cards. Plus the ornate Joy die combined with the simpler wreath die and all set off with the plaid ribbon. You sure know how to put together different elements to end up with a Wow card!

The white wreath die-cut with the red Nuvo drop berries is so pretty against that refreshing green base.

This is such a pretty wreath die cut and such a pretty card, Bonnie.
I am a fan of JOY as a sentiment phrase as it can fits into spaces where other sentiments would be too large. Perfect for your pretty wreath!

The nuovo drops look good here. You got a nice circular shape with them. Mine sometimes look a little scary!!!

Thanks for taking part in the May Rudolph Days Challenge.

Take care, Bonnie

Gosh, the die/Nuvo drops/ribbon/color combination here is striking! The large die fills the card front beautifully!

What a pretty white wreath with red berries, Bonnie! The white die-cut sentiment is perfect for the wreath, and the ribbon is so pretty. Everything beautifully pops against the deep green background.
