I had punched a ton of pine branches for a demo I did at my stamp club and had some left over so used them up for one last wreath card.
I used a slightly variegated green dp for my punched pieces, glued them on a thin circle (cut with two circle nesties), put it on a background of patterned dp, added a stamped and cut-out bird, a bow, and some gemstones for berries, and then stamped a sentiment and cut it out with a nesties label.
Many thanks to kittie747 who inspired me to make wreaths for my cards!

This is a darling wreath and with the little bird, bow and sparkly berries. I am so glad you enjoyed making wreaths. I have become addicted to playing with my punches.

So pretty and the little bird is just perfect. Super cards you're making with all the greenery. I'm sure Kittie is inspiring a lot of people.

Just curious...........but how do you get the punch to work easily? I have this punch but I broke my wrist this year and can't find the strength to punch through paper.........is there a secret on how to get it punch easily?
