Itâs my pleasure to host the Inspiration Challenge (IC822) this week. Weâre headed to Not on the High Street & their Pinterest Boards where I found THIS picture.
For my card, I die cut a narrow gold circle then used a smaller one to cut out the inside. The 2 different holly dies were used w/ 2 different colors of metallic gold card stock. Some gold cord was wrapped around the circle, tied in a bow & the loose ends wound around the outside of the circle. The greeting was gold embossed below then the holly added on the simple wreath.
Thanks so much for looking. It's on my blog w/ more pics & links: The Write Stuff

I love the look you achieved with the two shades of gold leaf die cuts! Love the gold cord twining around your beautiful wreath!
