Rita has a lovely gallery and I loved her Christmas Wreath card, especially the little plaid added to the end of the sentiment banner. It's the little things that mean so much, IMO. I used a piece of stamped plaid I'd made awhile back and placed it on the embossed vellum cardstock panel, attached to a pink pirouette card base. The wreath was die cut twice, attached and some gold crystals added, along with snowflakes. The sentiment banner was cut from pink pirouette, stamped and the little plaid piece added, like Rita had done. Here's her pretty card that inspired me.

Such a lovely Christmas card! I love your idea of backing your pretty wreath with the embossed vellum!! Your hand stamped plaid is lovely .... I also love to stamp my own plaid ... you've inspired me to do it more often! Thank you for honoring me by casing one of my cards!

Sweet! Love the wreath with the little snowflakes. Your stamped plaid is awesome. Love the embossed velum. I never think to do that, so thanks for the idea. Wonderful non-traditional Christmas colors. Well done! Great case.

Oh, this is so cool, with the embossed vellum piece (adds so much interest!) and wonderful plaid. Love the double wreath diecut and tiny snowflakes and gems. The little touch of plaid on the banner is sweet. You are right, it's the little things! This is charming!
