For today's TLC Jenn has asked us to TLC560 Hang Your Wreath, using die-cuts to create a wreath.
With the rare treat of a Monday off work I thought I could sneak a quick (ha ha) card in before the housework. Not as quick as I thought, but here it is.
I used textured card just to add a little texture, since I didn't want to go as glitzy as glitter card. I'd like to try another one and spritz it with gold or silver shimmer to see how it would look.
And actually, what I really wanted to make was a funky one with pink, purple and green circles and a spiral punch, but I thought that would take too long.
To arrange the wreath, I drew a circle on a scrap of paper, and laid the three largest snowflakes on it face down at three points of an imaginary triangle. Then I glued two smaller snowflakes between them, holding the circle together.
Then I just flipped it right-side up and added smaller snowflakes as fillers.There were enough with large centres that I was able to use foam dots to raise it up from the base.

Beautiful white on white with the tiny embossed tag! I think shimmer on that awesome big paper would look amazing!

Wow, this is a beautiful wreath card! I really like the silver accents, especially around the sentiment and the silver paper behind the textured cardstock. It would be neat if you made the other wreath idea that you described! Marti
