I got the idea from several cards which made a wreath from Pocket Silhouettes (perhaps this was the first person who posted the idea Holiday Wishes Wreath by danascott96 at Splitcoaststampers, and tried doing a Fall one using a Kaleidacolor pad. Boy, they make it LOOK easy, but I found it hard to make it even all the way around, so I had to keep adding more "leaves." I feel like it needs something--any suggestions?
TFL!
ETA I took one of Angel and Tania's suggestions and added a yellow ring around the center...the redo is here if you are interested Forums at Splitcoaststampers

I think this is gorgeous!! You could get away with adding nothing. but since you asked...perhaps a ring of something tiny in the center...rhinestones maybe or even just doodling with a sparkle gel pen.
can you tell us how you made your circle of leaves?

Angel, I was thinking that same thing! needs something in the center! The circle was made using a mask (punched a 1 1/4" circle, I think) and then just kept stamping around it. The Kaleidacolor pad has all of these colors in it, so I just cleaned it in between so I didn't mix the inks. Hope that makes sense and is what you were asking!

I LOVE this card. It is really beatuiful.
What I would love to see is if you could have stamped the vines at an angle all the way around, then ink only the tips of the vines to give the inner circle a more rugged edge, KWIM? The greeting circle I would do on the same CS as you did your lower tag, even with the button that color. I wish I had this set to try this now! Have to dig around and find if I have something similar. I would love to see if you do make up a second draft. I hope it wouldn't be too much trouble to PM me if you do!
