A Wreath with Christmas Wishes

Here's another card for my Christmas card stash -  that I made for the latest Festive Friday challenge.

I made my own barnboard background by scoring a white card stock panel with my ScorPal and then rubbing two ink colors over the panel -  Ranger Distress Stormy Sky and Pumice Stone.  I die cut the wreath out of both white card stock and a piece of patterned paper that looks like a photo of pine branches from Die Cuts With a View Christmas Stack (that I've had for years!)  I layered the two cuts together for strength since the DP is thin. I used Tim Holtz Holiday Wreath die that has little cut outs in it in the shape of holly - you can see them lifted up in the photo.

 I covered the wreath with Glitter Glaze Sheer Sparkle from MFT -  you can see the sparkle in this close up.  I made the sentiment panel by clear embossing the sentiment from Tis The Season from Waltzingmouse on white card stock - and then sponging over it with Stormy Sky Distress Ink.  I layered the wreath onto the barnboard panel with foam dots - and layered the sentiment piece over the wreath with more foam dots.

Here's the Festive Friday Image that inspired my card:

and here's my card again.

Love this blue and green color mix for Christmas!  Are you working on your holiday cards yet?
