Rustic Wreath

We're back from our travels and everything has been washed and put away ready for our next trip.  It's a horrid wet day today - perfect to spend some time crafting and make some Christmas cards!

To make this card I used:
     5" x 5" white matt card blank
     Uniko 'Rustic Wreath' stamps
     Lawn Fawn 'Outside In Stitched Square Stackables' die
     Versafine Olympia Green & Satin Red ink
     Snippets of white matt card and red pearlescent card

I placed a snippet of white card into my MISTI and stamped the wreath and sentiment with green ink.  I placed the berries stamp onto the outside of the wreath and stamped a couple of times with red ink.  I then continued to stamp the berries around the edge of the wreath, alternating the stamp on the inside and outside of the wreath.  The panel was then cut with a stitched die, layered onto a snippet of red pearlescent card and attached to the card front.

I am entering the following challenges:
     Alphabet Challenge - H is for Holidays (I have chosen Christmas in July)
     Christmas Crafts All Year Round - Anything Christmas or Winter Holiday Goes

This is very pretty with the leafy wreath and red berries with the red matted layer which complements it beautifully. Hope you had a lovely time in Scotland. We have not long been back from a couple of weeks in Northumberland and the weather was extremely mixed but we enjoyed it. x

Lovely card, great CAS and the stamping is wonderful, great choice with the red around the white, a tiny bit packs a WOW punch. Love it. Thank you for playing our CAS challenge this week at Krafty Chicks Challenge.
