This is my 2nd post today...if you're looking for the latest Addicted to CAS Challenge, please go HERE ~
I'm playing along in a few of my favorite challenges with two cards. My first card is for SSS Flickr Challenge #33 and Happy Little Stampers December Sketch Challenge:
Here is my card:
I die cut my brand new SSS Chisholm Wreath die in white, and I love that they include the berries and bow dies to match. I placed it on a panel of vellum die cut with Mama Elephant Femme Frames, added glossy accents to the berries and some Wink of Stella clear glitter pen to the bow. Lastly, I embossed the sentiment with Liquid Platinum embossing powder. Here is a close up:

This week, we got a fun surprise at Muse Card Club...Ardyth's daughter, Kate, created a really cute inspiration card for us:
I love how Kate was inspired by the gift card, and in turn created a birthday card to match! I'm sure her friend is going to love it, too!
Here is my card:
Here is my card:
I started by stamping the sentiment in a similar font, then stamped the flowers and stems in green, yellow and peach inks. I added a few white pearl gems just to 'jazz it up' a little...and that was it!
Thanks so much for stopping by ~ Have a great weekend,

Your new wreath is so pretty and what a lovely way to interpret the sketch challenge. Your muse entry is so fun and colorful. After stacks and stacks of holiday cards, I am itching for some flowers so that card is just in time.

what a elegant wreath - love everything about it - and meant to mention this a long time ago but am loving the way you photograph your cards - so many nice little touches that make the photo special
I can see why you bought that wreath, it looks so elegant on your card. Using the vellum finishes it off perfectly as does the embossed sentiment. Beautiful.
The card for Muse challenge is so pretty, I have tried a few times to do flowers in a row like this and each time it just doesnt work for me. I love the look yu have achieved, pretty without fuss.
