Wreath Challenge

Today at Double D we have a new challenge theme and
a fun new mood board to inspire you!

Our theme is WREATHS, we want to see a wreath on your creation.



My biggest decision was if I should use a stamp or a die LOL.
I went with a stamp as I had a NBUS that I had purchased from Spellbinders
earlier in the year.
These stamps are what they call 3D shading, so easy to add color to
and look pretty great when you are done!


I didn't do much more then color the image in
then die cut it out and placed in on a pretty paper and add the sentiment.


I had intended to add a die cut bow but for the life of me couldn't find what 
I was looking for so went with a tiny gingham one.

So pop on over to Double D and see all the gorgeous wreaths there,
each one so unique and beautiful!!

Entering the following challenges:
NBUS .... Never Before Used Schtuff
Word Art Wednesday .... ATG

Hello Diane: I was just at Leslie's blog commenting on her Halloween cards and, as I read the comments I saw yours saying that you are going to start a Halloween challenge soon and I think this is awesome.
I love Halloween and I would love to participate.
I'm going to start following you so I can get that notification for this challenge.
Stay healthy and safe.

I especially love to see your design with this beautiful wreath stamp, Diane, because it is also stacked on my NBUS mountain! Thanks for the reminder to use it this year. I love it on the stitched circle and with the green plaid diagonal background! Thank you so much for sharing with everyone at NBUS! Keep well! Hugs, Darnell

I love this classic green, red and white Christmas card. Beautiful background paper and the holly stamp makes a perfect wreath!

Leslie Miller said...

Wow! I have to say that's a pretty amazing looking wreath! Beautiful card altogether, Diane. I love wreaths. Sure would be nice to jump in and play, but not sure as this is a busy stamping time for me and I'm slow. I have a wreath I'd love to color, sigh...

Barbara said...

It may be simply done, but so classic and wonderful design. Loving that plaid background. just so appealing and winsome.

This is beautiful, Diane. I made a wreath card for your challenge, But I didn't like how it turned out so I didn't post it. I will try again if I can find the time. Thanks so much for sharing your awesome talent with us. It always blesses me to see your wonderful creativity linked up with us.
Hugs,
Karen
