Well, it's really time to get serious about Christmas, isn't it? And happy Black Friday to you all! I'm sure everyone is eager to find the big sales you've been waiting for, and Power Poppy has a big "Salesgiving" this weekend starting off with a new release of four digital sets. This is one of them, and I had such fun coloring it.
I resized my wreath, die cut it, and then colored it (my favorite part of making a card). I had to fussy cut the green mat. Then I struggled with what to do next and rummaged through my scrap bin and found this great Penny Black die. I die cut another one and layered them, and then I used a LOT of dimensional tape to pop it up on the green (but I added the seam binding first). Then I added my wreath, and it was done. I am eager to use one or two of the other wreaths, and they are so versatile and inspiring after seeing both the Instant Gardeners and Bloom Brigade joined in today's blog hop.
Thank you so much for taking a closer look at my card, and I hope you have a wonderful rest of the week...and don't spend too much, right? Hehe! Hugs, sweet friends!

Lovely card with that beautiful wreath, Cheryl. LOVE LOVE your color palette. The bg die cut cover really adds a lovely dimension, but doesn't distract for your expert coloring.

Sweet Cheryl, this is another stunning card you've created! I love the gorgeous design of the card, the colors, and your outstanding coloring!! You are so skilled, my special sister!! Hugs!!
Hi Cheryl, I love your card, especially the large size of the wreath and the pretty background die.
You asked if I got the whole set of wreaths, and of course, I did! It was too good of a deal to pass up. I will have several more projects using them coming up soon. Thanks for your kind comments!

What a beautiful eye for colour you have Cheryl! I love that soft green with the white. The pop of hot pink really gives your wreath a wow factor up in the thousands! :-) Gorgeous layout; wonderful card!
