Kraft Christmas Wreath

 


Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at CAS Christmas and it's our 3rd birthday celebration!
Thankyou to Loll and the team for hosting such a fun challenge.

To mark the special occasion there will also be some prizes to win, just make sure your card is clean and simple and that you follow the theme.

Loll has chose a theme of kraft, red and white, and a small amount of neutral colours are also ok to use.


The design team and our guest Gundi have some wonderful inspiration for you, so I hope you can play along.

I diecut a wreath from kraft card and glitzed it up with some clear sparkle glitter embosing powder.
Here's a closer look.

I used a sentiment sticker as I'd glued the wreath to the base before stamping the sentiment!

I'm linking up to these challenges:
Dies R Us, anything goes. I've used a Memory Box die.




Merry Little Christmas Challenge, anything goes Christmas.




Supplies:
Memory Box catalina wreath; versamark ink and Wow clear sparkle glitter ep; sentiment sticker; red bling.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

What a beautiful die cut wreath Cathy and I just love how you blinged it up with the sparkling embossing powder...soooo pretty! The red sentiment and the berries all add that pop of color to the kraft and white, and make this such a lovely, lovely card!! :0)

I love the glittery sparkle on the kraft card wreath Cathy and the red gems look great in the centre of each flower and a red sentiment to finish. A brilliant card! x

Great idea to add the glittery embossing powder to the kraft wreath - I've never thought of glitzing up kraft before but it looks fabulous. Love the red bling and red sentiment to bring red into the card.

Loll said...

Beautiful CAS Christmas card ! This is definitely a lovely combo that Loll chose for the new CAS Christmas challenge, and your card is a gorgeous showcase. I would never have thought to put glitter on kraft paper but it is really beautiful ! Thanks so much for sharing and for playing along at Addicted to Stamps and More.

Your Kraft wreath is unexpected and beautiful. Love the added sparkle which is perfect for Christmas.

Viv said...

One of my most used dies Cathy - but strangely enough I have never tried glittering it - and now I am wondering why!
This is lovely! x

Colleen said...

How perfect to make a kraft wreath with all the sparkle and shine for the card! Beautiful, Cathy!

This is so sparkly and pretty, Cathy! Glitter heat-embossing the Kraft wreath is a fresh and brilliant idea, and you managed to keep the thin branches intact so well. The sparkly red sticker sentiment matches the wreath perfectly!
