Here is my submission for today's Inspiration Challenge, which is this great wrapping paper: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I went through my retired sets and came up with Weather or Not, which has never seen ink!!!
I stamped the mittens in Versamark on Close to Cocoa and Soft Sky, embossed them with Clear EP, and then cut out each and every little mitten.
Then, using my Coluzzle, I cut a circle *band* and used that as the guide to shape my *wreath*. I alternated colors until I filled the entire wreath.
This is one of those cards that actually looks like I imagined and hoped it would.
The finished card is 5x5.
Thanks so much for looking...and thanks for a great challenge Karen!!!
