Hey there - even though the June CAS Christmas closed on the 24th, I've still had wreaths on my mind! This would have been my 3rd and final entry if I hadn't forgotten that their challenges don't run til the last day of the month...oops!
Supplies: Paper - Michael's green; Paper Studio glitter;
Neenah Classic Crest Solar White
Dies - Penny Black Whirl Wreath;
A Jillian Vance Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop
Stamp with Die - Hero Arts Vintage Christmas Post (retired)
Embossing Folder - Darice Stripes
Other - Park Lane gems; Copic Markers (R22/R24/R46/100);
Taylored Expressions Simple Strips in Reverse - Christmas
This card was inspired by a couple CAS Christmas designers, Trina & Christine (initial and reminder cards, respectively). So I brought out my cardinal stamp and my PB wreath die and combined them atop another stripe-embossed background. Some gems and a TE sentiment strip finished it off. I'm still way behind on Christmas card production but these challenges are helping me get there!
Thanks for stopping and I hope you'll pop back tomorrow for my last of June post for Die Cut Divas! Happy crafting!!
The dry-embossed background provides terrific texture for your fun composition!
