Fun sketch today! I have this berry wreath I've been wanting to use and I think the sketch was perfect for it. I think all the sparkle will qualify for the Fan Club gallery, too!
I stamped the wreath twice, cut one out and used a scallop die on the second. After coloring both w/ Copics, I attached the cut out version on top of the die cut one and added a larger wine red circle behind it.
The berry branch was stamped on the long panel and I used a little out of the box Nestie technique and Nestie Resizing Technique on it. Seems like a lot for one little panel, lol. Stickles was added on all the berries for a little sparkle and I added 3 gems under the greeting to fill in some space. The gems and the ribbon were both colored w/ a pink Copic marker because I didn't have the right color of either one. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.
Thanks so much for looking! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.

Julie, a lovely b'day card. Your berry colors are perfect and I love how you made the berries glossy so that they sparkle. Lovely ribbon for your pretty bow.
