Eileen Hull Inspiration Team November - Wreath on a Rustic Door

Eileen Hull is collaborating with DCWV (Die Cuts With a View) this month - and every Tuesday the Inspiration Team is going to be creating using Eileen's dies, embossing folders and Twist and Style tool along with DCWV Paper Stacks.
Today I am sharing a Christmas Card (it's never too early to get your Christmas cards done!!)
I used 3 different sheets from the DCWV Cranberry Christmas Paper Stack -  the wood grain background (don't you LOVE it??!!) -  a small floral print in grey, white, cranberry and gold and a subtle tone on tone design in cranberry.
I die cut the flower using Eileen's Flower Heart and Soul die and assembled it with alternating colors, using foam dots between each layer for depth and  fastening them together with a large brad.  The Merry die is from PTI as well as the Christmas stamp.
I love how this looks like a beautiful wreath on a rustic door all decorated for Christmas!
Please be sure to check Eileen's blog every Tuesday to see how the Inspiration Team is using both the DCWV papers and Eileen's products - I'm sure we'll all be inspired!
I'll be back next Tuesday with some beautiful gift tags!
