Back to Christmas challenges after a brief stop for a Valentine! This week it's for the Merry Christmas Challenge where it's anything goes with an optional element of wreath. I went with the optional element. Here's my card:
I punched some pine branches from various green dps and glued them to a small die cut circle to create a tiny wreath, small enough to fit onto my die cut tag. Love the way that tag adds the sentiment to the card!
I used some small bits of silver ribbon on the wreath and tag, and mounted everything on a piece of silver cs. Added some silver gemstones to the wreath and it was done!
A blog devoted to the cards I make in my tiny upstairs space. When my sister stays there, she calls it an "artist's garret". I'm not an artist, but am an enthusiastic cardmaker - hence the title "Cardmaker's Garret".

Beautiful silver, white and green color combination for your gorgeous tiny pine wreath on a tag CAS design, Susan. I have a small container filled with the same pine boughs. I love your idea of just a tiny wreath. TFS Susan and always inspiring me. Hugs..
