This is my sample for CC857. Barbara is our hostess and she chose just jade, fresh freesia and merry merlot for the color trio. Dessert option this week is to use a stencil.
For my card, I used a stamp set I just purchased from Gina K Designs - holiday wreath builder set. I also purchased the wreath builder template that helps you with the placement of your stamped elements.
I used the challenge colors for my wreath. My center circle is stamped with fresh freesia and the sentiment with just jade. I added a just jade circle layer and then used dimensional adhesive to secure.
Hope you can play along with us this week. Barbara has chosen some great colors for your card making.

Mary, this wreath card is so pretty! I love the poinsettias and the greenery in two shades of Just Jade. Those wreath builder sets are so clever, and you've showed what great results are possible with them!

These colors wouldn't seem at first to be Christmas, but you have shown they make a beautiful Christmas card, Mary. Wonderful wreath design with the poinsettias, holly and mistletoe.
