CAS Christmas June Reminder - Wreath

Hello there.  This is the reminder post for this month’s WREATH challenge at CAS Christmas.


Here’s my card.


That cute little puppy in the wreath image is from Yappy Woofmas stamp set by Mama Elephant (ME). Stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on alcohol marker friendly cardstock that was die cut out with the Blanket Stitched Rectangle die from Pinkfresh Studio.  Coloured it with Copic Sketch markers then added clear shimmer to the berries and bow for a bit of sparkle. 


The letters were die cut next from Bristol paper and black cardstock using Block Alphabet dies from SugarPea Designs.  Offset them for a drop shadow, then adhered them to the panel.  To finish, stamped the sentiment from Waffle Flower Oversized Joy with Versafine Onyx Black ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.


Since I’m behind on my Christmas card stash, I made a second card using Bold Alphabet dies from Altenew on this one.


The challenge ends in one week on June 24 PST.  To see more inspirations, head on over to the challenge blog HERE.  Thank you for stopping by.

Both cards are such cute wreath cards, Trina! The puppy popping through the wreath is so sweet and using the wreath as "O" is a wonderful idea. The drop shadow of the die-cut letters is awesome!
