Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
I'm trying to build my Christmas stash. I got off to a slow start this year.
For this card, I pulled out an old wreath die that I've had for years and haven't
used enough. I don't know why because it's fun to color.
After die cutting from Neenah Solar White, I colored with Copics.
It was placed on an embossed background, topped with a red die cut bow, and
finished with a die cut Joy from the same set.
This particular die has been discontinued, but there are lots of other
wreath dies on the market.
Challenges:
Christmas Kickstart #101 - Let's Wreath it Up
Inkspirational #348 - Clean and Simple
Neglected Stuff - Not used in a long time

This is simplicity at its best, Bonnie. The beautifully colored wreath is right at home on the wood plank background. Lovely card, my friend.
That die is gorgeous and so is the way you colored it up Bonnie! I love how perfectly the joy sentiment fits in the center of the wreath too and also the embossed background! CAS perfection my friend...LOVE it!! Hugs. :0)
Bonnie, this is a keeper for sure! I love that it isn't made up of just pine branches which gives you plenty of different items to color - beautifully colored today, btw. OH, that BOW! Just love this one - and the planked background is fantastic!

You gotta love those favorites that you can always go back to, and this is a pretty one for sure! Your coloring is fantastic and the card is very pretty -- a win for the stash
I love your wreath Bonnie, and the simple white background using the Planks EF suits it perfectly...a very pretty Christmas make. x
Lovely wreath Bonnie. Love the plank background to show it off. I'm way behind on my Christmas cards too. xx
Love your wreath card Bonnie. Simple and pretty. I am off to a slow start on my Christmas cards also. Hope to catch up soon. :)
What a gorgeous wreath, Bonnie! Isn't it odd how we 're-find' some of our older stash and enjoy it more second time around. Love the wood panel background too. Thanks for joining Greta and me at The Christmas Kickstart Challenge, Jo x

As pretty as this wreath is, I love the bow just as much! CAS and fabulous, Bonnie!
What a sweet wreath this is with the pretty bow! It exudes joy, just as the sentiment says!
Beautiful, love the bow with its long tail.
Such a unique and beautiful wreath die, Bonnie! Love your coloring and that you let the wreath be the star! Thank you for joining Jo and me at CKC!
So VERY pretty and with postage as high as it has gotten it should be a great one to mail!!

I feel the same about the slow start, I need to get going on my cards. Your wreath is beautifully coloured and your embossed background is the perfect frame xx
A beautiful wreath die and beautifully coloured! Just enough texture in the background to add interest but still keep it a very CAS card.
