Celebrate

I finally got around to doing another of the Seasonal Wreaths from Flourishes. I kept the card kind of plain since the main image is sort of busy.

I stamped the wreath on a Perfect Paper Panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with Copic markers, then put a heavy layer of Crystal Effects on the whole thing and cut it out after it dried. Then I popped it up with 3M foam squares on Whisper White, then Riding Hood Red, then popped the whole thing up on foam squares. The sentiment tag is actually a punched out ornament using a stamp from All That Glitters with Ruby Red ink stamped off twice, then I stamped the sentiment from Seasonal Wreaths with Memento Tuxedo Black on top of that.

I've already sent all my Christmas cards, now I guess I'm getting a head start on next year ;-)


Thanks for dropping in today!
