I made this card for the Christmas Kickstart 'Let's Wreath it Up' challenge using one of my favourite Christmas stamps.

To make this card I used:
5" x 5" white matt card blank
Lawn Fawn 'Outside In Stitched Square Stackables' die
Uniko 'Rustic Wreath' stamps
Versafine Olympia Green & Vintage Sepia ink
Snippets of white matt card and turquoise matt card
Turquoise enamel dots
I placed a snippet of white card into my MISTI and stamped the wreath and sentiment a couple of times to get a good depth of colour. The panel was then cut with the stitched square die and layered onto a slightly larger snippet of turquoise matt card. The panel was then attached to the centre of the card blank. I stamped the pine cones onto another snippet of white card and fussy cut them before attaching them to the wreath with tiny foam pads. To finish I added small turquoise enamel dots around the wreath.
I am entering the following challenges:
As You Like It - Favourite Season (I like all seasons for different reasons, but as a cardmaker 'Winter' is my favourite as I enjoy making Christmas cards)

What a beautifully elegant seasonal wreath Kath and those little enamel dots draw the eye into the pinecone design. Effective matting and layering as well.
Many thanks for sharing with us at Stamping Sensations and We Love Stamping challenges.

This is a beautiful understated wreath Kath and perfect with the added pinecones and turquoise enamel dots to finish. Wreaths are one of my favourite looks on a Christmas card. x
I love this, it is so refreshing. Thanks for joining AYLI challenge. Elaine
You've used this wreath, which I have, so beautifully! Love the colors, pinecones and mats! So glad you joined Jo and me at CKC!
Beautiful and elegant design. Thank you for joining us at We Love Stamping this month
This is a stunning wreath stamp as it is, but adding the bling and those sweet fussy-cut pinecones took this to a higher level of excellence, Kath! Wow! Hugs, Darnell
A lovely card Kath, love the wreath stamp and the turquoise pear berries.
