For the Christmas in July CAS and free-for-all challenges, using last week's colors.
I'll use this for my basic Christmas card this year, I think. It's easy to mass produce with two MISTI's going in a line. I'll probably use a red accent rather than gold, and a real bow instead of a fussy cut hero arts image. I'll have a personal message photocopied onto stock cs and die cut it for the inside message.
I'd stamped the bow with soft suede, then over-stamped it with versa mark, to heat emboss with clear ep.
I'd tried to heat emboss gold stars on the wreath. Fail! Lesson learned. The stars were not opaque. You can see the first efforts in front.
Anyway, it's still a work in progress...

A beautiful Christmas card! 2 MISTI's going, wow! I've done 2 die cutting machines before, but not 2 Misti's. I love the minimalist vine wreath, great for add ons!

What a pretty way to use the leafy wreath! The gold stars and brown bow give it a very natural look while still having some sparkle! The scallops under the mail panel is a sweet touch also!
