Fun challenge! I picked F4A10 (flowers), but since it was a spring challenge & we're heading into winter, my flowers are poinsettias.
For my Christmas wreath card, I die cut the large dp layer & the white layer. After edging the white layer w/ a gold paint pen, I attached them together. For the wreath, I die cut a Doily out of white along w/ the two different poinsettias dies. I also die cut the two poinsettias out of the same dp I used for the lg layer. I used a small circle die for the gold poinsettia centers & I tucked in a few gold branches on the right along w a couple of pinecones on top. I tucked a white die cut Windowsill Candle die cut into the center of the wreath.
After die cutting one lg & one med bow out of the brushed gold c/s, I stacked the med bow part on top of the lg bow. I also die cut one gold Merry & 3 heavy white Merrys then stacked them together for more dimension.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Julie this is stunning! Your cards are like a festival unto themselves...you put such care in putting layers together that they always look amazing. I love the gold on this and the red/gold dp...wow it makes for such a rich looking design.

Gorgeous wreath, Julie. I love that you added pinecones and all the gold makes your card so elegant.

Your intricate poinsettia wreath is outstanding, along with that great big gold bow. Using several layers for the sentiment really makes it stand out perfectly.
