I've seen a few cards in the gallery where the Medallion stamp has been used as a wreath for a Christmas card and I decided to try this for myself.
The card measures 5 3/4" square and was made with Ruby Red CS. I stamped the Baroque Motifs flourish in Ruby Red ink as a background all over the card front.
I stamped the Medallion in Old Olive ink on Whisper White and cut it out. I then stamped the Hero Arts Scallop Circle stamp, added the sentiment, cut it out with a circle Nestie die and glued it to the Medallion. I found out about this Hero Arts stamp being the perfect size for the middle of the SU! Medallion stamp from Kristina Werner's blog.
I added shiny red brads as decoration for my wreath and I've popped the wreath up with 3d foam tape.

Awesome job on your wreath! What a great card...
(BTW, that's about the best job I've seen yet on cutting out the medallion!)
