Happy Monday peeps! I have been remiss in using some of my new goodies from the holiday catalog, so I sat down yesterday and tried to remedy that. I used the pretty Tidings of Christmas DSP and the Sparkle of the Season bundle, along with the sketch from Sunday Stamps:
And here we go:
I struggled a bit with the wreath; it's a little labor-intensive to diecut all the wee little leafy pieces, and it really didn't look very Christmasy until I added some red rhinestones, but I'll keep playing with it. I love the set...it has LOTS of images for fall and winter stamping and I love the sentiments. I used Soft Succulent and Sahara Sand for the leaves, then did some marker-stamping for the "berry" images:
I used the stitched rectangle die from Ornate Layers dies, making it smaller by repositioning it and running it through the Big Shot twice. The sentiment was stamped in Real Red; the offset panel was Cherry Cobbler. I think this is such a sweet inside sentimen too:
I have stampers coming this evening to make Christmas cards, so I'm gonna scoot! Thanks for popping in today!
Uncle Kevin and Aunt Kristy gave Cassidy an early birthday present; she loves Legos and had been wanting the New York City skyline one:
Stay tuned to see the finished project! Enjoy your day and be blessed!

ReplyDeleteI forgot when Cassidy's birthday is but I'm thinking August? I hope I had yours written down in the proper slot this year. I messed up all my calendars! I love this DSP!
ReplyDeleteSuch a great take on our sketch - I'm loving this DSP! Thanks so much for playing at Sunday Stamps!
ReplyDeleteI see no signs of struggle with your wreath, it's lovely! Wonderful card!
ReplyDeleteWOW! This is gorgeous, LeAnne! I love your wreath and the DSP! You made our sketch shine! So happy you joined us at Sunday Stamps!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I am working up my next class using this suite so I just had to pin this to my inspiration board! Love the wreath and those fab papers. Almost as much as Cassidy’s excitement for her new Lego - can’t beat it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful papers, and the wreath front-and-center is the perfect use of the sketch! Thanks for joining Sunday Stamps this week.
ReplyDeleteWow, LeAnne, what a beautiful Christmas card! The wreath was worth the effort, it's lovely along with the pretty dip. So glad you had time to join us at Sunday Stamps and I hope Cassidy loves playing with her new Lego set!
