Yep--I'm so happy to be Jo's Guest Elf for
Christmas Kickstart: Wreath it Up! If you know me, you know I LOVE wreaths. I honestly can't even count how many wreath stamps, dies and stencils I have! And I just got another one! 😄 Plus, I love to use small stamps or individual diecuts to make wreaths. For today's card, I used one of my newer products: CN9 Boughs & Holly Stencil Pack.
The inks I used are CN9 Evergreen, Clover, Cranberry and PTI Cocoa Bean. It's a fun stencil to use. You ink it once and then turn it 180 degrees and ink again. The bow is from Pinkfresh Artistic Bows which I got for $3 from a crafter's destash sale. The bow was brushed with a shimmer pen and the berries were covered in Christmas Red Stickles. I tried several sentiments and decided on this one from PTI Joyful Florals. I hope you'll check out Jo's card with a darling unexpected image and join the challenge. I'm entering
SSS Wednesday.
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you.

That sure is a pretty little wreath Greta! Love that you kept the card CAS to let it shine!
ReplyDeleteOops... almost forgot to congratulate you on your elf gig!! :)
ReplyDeleteYour wreath is lovely and I especially like the red stickled berries, Greta. I bet you can guess what wreath I'll use for this challenge. I'm glad yours arrived.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being an elf at CKC, Greta - perfect challenge for you and I love this new wreath!! Fun bow and sentiment too!!
ReplyDeleteIt was so much fun to see your pic show up on the challenge blog, and I dug up two wreath stamps to play with. With family here, we'll see if I can get both done. Yours is lovely, and the 3-D bow is wonderful!
