When browsing the IC site at the weekend I spotted a black and white wreath, but I can't find the picture now. I made my card using smooth textures from the pearlescent card and rough texture with the snowflake embossing folder. I die cut the wreath in black and then die cut the little white houses and added those on top.

I have this die, Oh thank you for a wonderful idea in how to use it. I have only done a couple of cards with it. Your black and white beauty is so striking! I love how you kept the texture away from the center to let the pattern of the die shop up.

The contrast of black and white is so striking here—it gives the whole design a crisp, modern elegance. I love how the pearlescent textures add subtle dimension, and the snowflake embossing brings such a cozy winter feel. The little white houses nestled into the wreath are charming and evocative, like a quiet village under moonlight. Beautifully balanced and full of atmosphere.
