I used two of my circle nestabilities and made a wreath then used the negatives to stencil through. I stamped the pine needles from Watercolor Winter to stamp the wreath. Next I added the bow, sponged the edges in red and embossed the background with the holly embossing folder. I stamped Merry Christmas from Our Daily Bread's Cardinal Ornament and used my large oval punch to add the greeting. The last thing I did was add red stickles for berries. That's how I built my wreath for today's challenge.
