Christmas in March!




Is it ever too early to start on Christmas cards?
The answer is NO when you have this gorgeous die in your hands!!
I am using


I cut the wreath out twice using plain white card.


I added dimensions to back side of one wreath and
with scissors I clipped bits away to release the holly so I could curl it up for a 3d effect.



I layered them together on the dimensionals.


Next I cut a piece of nice red card and folded into a 5x5" card.
I ran the front of the card through a holly embossing folder.


I mounted the Holiday Wreath onto card and added a gingham bow and some pearls.
I printed off a little robin, coloured with promarkers and stuck him with dimensionals to the centre
of the Holiday Wreath.


I finished the card by adding a sentiment and some red gems to the wreath.

For my card I used

Red card
Image - Crafters Companion
Holly Embossing Folder from Tattered Lace
Embellishments - pearls, gingham ribbon, sentiment, gems
Medium - promarkers

I would like to enter this into

Have a great weekend and thanks for dropping by!
