This is my second card and this time it really looks like a wreath but I had a very bad moment making this card, just at the last stamp I forgot to mask my baubles...so the Christmas Presents were over the baubles just on 2 of them, I've stamped 2 more baubles on white linen and cut them out only the lower parts not the top of the bauble, but with only 2 popped a bit it wasn't pretty, so I've stamped all the baubles once more and cut them out and glued over the already stamped ones.
This wreath was started with the baubles, then masked them and stamped the holly, masked again and stamped the presents, stamped the sentiment in the middle, layered simply on red linen.
I've colored with metallic brush pens.

Oh, I can imagine the gasp when that mistake moment was realized! You persevered and saved the day beautifully, Anita. I love that you used something other than flowers and these baubles are so rich and regal with their gold touches. It's a beautiful card and frame worthy.

I did a lot of masking on my first two that never made it to the card stage, I totally get you on remembering to move them each time. This is so rich and ornate and decorative, a wonderful Christmas card. The baubles and holly make a fantastic wreath.

What a gorgeous Christmas card this is Anita. I had not thought to use ornaments before when stamping a wreath so thank you for the fabulous inspiration on this. I really love the colors you used too! ~Karen.
