A Simple Stunning Card Using Stampin'Up! Cottage Wreaths & Country Wreaths Dies

Today we're creating A Simple Stunning Card Using Stampin'Up! Cottage Wreaths & Country Wreath Dies. I haven't played with this set much so far...so you can image what fun I've had when I discovered the layering look of the wreath dies....here's today's card....

Cherry card

Here's a closer look at the wreath...

Cherry card cuThe wreath is layered over the Soft Seafoam Glimmer paper--unfortunately you can't get the full effect of the glimmer but imagine it on a sparkly bed....stunning!

We began with a Cherry Cobbler card base and covered that with cardstock put through the Quatrefoil embossing folder..that design is such a lovely background for a holiday creatuib.

Then we layered the Seafoam Glimmer "boards" and hung the wreath.

The wreath is two layers---the first is the more solid die using Shaded Spruce. Layered over that is the less dense wreath die in Mint Macaron--this color with the blue tones accents the Shaded Spruce green very well.

The bow die in this set is a great addition to the top and then we sparkled up the wreath with Red Rhinestones. And there you have it---simple & stunning.

But I didn't want to stop playing with these dies so I made another card using White as the background---and here's the result....
