Jewel Wreath

I made this card for the CAS Christmas 'Wreath' challenge using a peel-off wreath from my 'bits box'.  I'm also entering the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown 'Colouring' challenge, and Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge 'Anything Goes' and the The Merry Christmas Challenge 'Anything Goes'.


Card blank: 6" x 6" white matt
Image and Sentiment: Woodware 'Bubble Wreath' and 'Christmas Greetings' silver peel-offs
Colouring: Promarkers
Card: Silver mirri, white matt
Other: Red bow (upcycled from a Christmas card)
Other: Wink of Stella

I attached the wreath to the white card adding the sentiment below it.  This panel was trimmed, layered onto silver mirri card and attached to the centre of the card blank.  I coloured the wreath with Promarkers and attached a red bow to the top. To finish I highlighted the baubles with a Wink of Stella.

It just goes to show how beautiful peel-offs can look Kath, and love all the different colour Promarkers you have used, and such a stylish sentiment too. x
