I'm on a roll for producing Christmas cards ahead of time now that I've found a couple year-round challenges focused on Christmas. This month's CAS Christmas: Ornament challenge prompted me to create an ornament not from a stamp but from a wreath die cut which was backed by another circle die cut and hung on a silver ribbon. The "merry" from PTI's Sprig Wreath was embossed with sparkly platinum EP on a PTI Shape Shifters: Round die cut. VersaMark ink, clear EP and a SSS Snow Falling stencil with ink blended DI added texture around the merry. The wreath was foam mounted to the "merry" circle with a few aqua glitter PTI Confetti Garland border stars added. The ornament was grounded with light stenciling on the card, the green ink at the top hinting that a tree branch is near.
This wreath makes a lovely ornament, Vikki! Love how you've added the stars and the lovely background! Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Christmas!

ReplyDeleteI didn't think of making a wreath an ornament! Such a clever idea, Vikki! This is sparkly and very pretty. The subtle stenciled background is a nice touch. Thank you for playing along with us at CAS Christmas! Hideko xx
