FS781 - Ardyth is our featured stamper this week. I chose this card of hers to CASE.
I liked the green wreath in her card and the use of "joy" in the centre. So I kept that and the square format. But mine is a die cut, watercoloured wreath. And instead of her cs border, I die cut my panel with a wonky stitched square die.
The berries that belong to the holly leaves are watercoloured red, but the berries that belong to the mistletoe leaves stayed white but disappeared against the white panel so I took a grey pencil and added some shading to them - they ended up looking like dirty berries but at least they show up!

Loving the greens in this card. They feel so peaceful and then that red just pops right out. Beautiful wreath and a great sentiment -- JOY -- and that perfectly describes your card.
Susan, this is a great case of Ardyth's card. Your water colored wreath is beautiful and so festive. The stitching pattern on the background is the perfect touch of texture.

Haha! I have these dies and have probably made a card similar to this one as well! I love the classic feel of the colours, shapes and font as well as all the white space!
