As much as I wanted to totally CASE that photo, I found a way to decorate a wreath with a few of items I had cut for a garland - you'll tell me if you think this is cheating, okay?
By now you'll recognize that Lil' Inker wood grain cover plate, right? Here are the elements of my card design:
- a wreath was created by using two circle dies, but this time, I cut it from a pretty panel of embossed paper that I made while crafting with Lisa a few weeks back. Lisa might be the only person that loves embossing folders as much as I do!
- That pretty bow is from Pinkfresh Studios' Season's Greetings set, and coordinating die - water colored
- a few more of those favored Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaves - again water colored
- 'Tis the Season of sentiments from the latest release from Ellen Hutson, LLC
- Last, but totally necessary to my design, a few Queen & Company pom poms!

This is absolutely gorgeous, Michele. The pom poms are almost too much to bear. I love everything about this card. xx
Wow! This is stunning, Michele! I adore every detail. That embossing folder looks like its a lovely one. Would love to know the brand. I see berries and leaves in it. Your leaves are so pretty. And the watercoloring is perfection. So much to love. Nope, couldn't have done it better! Crafty hugs!
The PERFECT CASE!!!
Wow a make your own wreath.....and it is fabulous! I so need all those stitchy things you used to make your background and leaves! It is beautiful!
I was wondering when I'd see poms again from your and this was the perfect opportunity! Gorgeous card Missy!

I gasped when this appeared on the screen! Jo x
Nailed it in my estimation. Love the subtle leaf colors with those vibrant pompoms...they definitely look like they belong on that terrific leaf.
wreath NOT leaf
No, no, no LeAnne...she's sending it to me for Christmas LOL!! Oh golly is this ever SA-WEET!! I don't think you've cheated one little bit. And that Lifestyle Crafts embossing folder (*wink!) made such a pretty little wreath. CUTENESS overload!!
It was because of you I bought a similar woodgrain die... and now I remember why!
You own that stitched background like a boss! I don’t have much time for challenges right now but I do love the colors in this one.
I am so in love with that background die you use Michele, it is just so beautiful. The cool inspiration photo is amazing and I love that garland, but I really love how you made your wreath! It is just beautiful and so CAS. I love, love, love!! Hugs, Brenda
Sweet card, and still loving those pom poms :o)
How can anything be better?
This card is stunning in a cute way. I love the fact that you made a white on white card with just a hint of color here and there!
Nope not cheating.....Just a creative and wonderful interpretation of the inspiration photo...You are one clever and creative lady x. Such a pretty card x.
Such a beautiful card, Michele! I love your color palette, the fabulous leaves and darling bow so much...not to mention all the embossing you included...WOW! I think I need to get a bag of those sweet pom-poms...such a clever idea!
I love it and don't think it's cheating at all! The leaves add such a wonderful texture, and you know I'm a fan of that bow! ;)
Can I be next in line to receive this beauty in the mail? AND, I love embossing folders, too! This card is gorgeous! Such a fabulous take on the inspiration photo! Love the pink and the leaves! XX
