I do not have 3 of the challenge colors, only berry burst. My NBUS stamp set is the Stippled Blossoms. Had it for ages. I am pretty sure I have not used it, lol., but you know I really can't remember! Dini gave a great wreath tutorial: https://outlook.live.com/owa/?path=/mail/inbox/rp.
I am pretty happy with this, except I see there is a bump in the upper left corner. Don't know how that got there, but I am disappointed about that.
I had wanted to case something from Margaret King (Making Papercrafts-Nov. 23, 2013. When I saw Dini's tutorial today, I was happy to try it. I found out today, that Margaret passed away in Dec. 2014, so I was sad to read that. She was a SU demo.

This is a beautiful wreath and I’m so pleased that you provided a link to a tutorial on how to do this. I’ve been intending to try my hand a making s wreath like this but didn’t know where to start - now I do!
I’m also delighted to see that you made the bird using the SU 2 step bird punch. It’s always been a favorite of mine and I enjoy seeing it how used it with the wreath.
That’s a bummer about the bump between the cs layers....though I just admit I wouldn’t have noticed it if you hadn’t called it to our attention! I too have had this happen and it’s just one of those things that is irritating but not the end of the world. Bet the recipient will be delighted to receive this, despite the bump!
Neat card and one you should be proud of! TFS

Shirl, what a gorgeous Christmas card this is! The foliage is nice and thick and full of color and dimension. I would say your sweet little blue bird looks very happy resting on this wonderful wreath you made. You make the best twine bows and this one is just terrific and ties this card up beautifully! ~Karen.
