Warm Winter Wishes – Color Throwdown #69
Cathy has provided us with a beautiful warm color combination this week for the Color Throwdown. It’s just perfect for this time of year…fall and Christmas!
We’re lucky enough to be sponsored by Flourishes this week! We were all so excited to be able to work with their gorgeous stamps! My choice was the Seasonal Wreaths. Just perfect, no matter what time of year it is! Here’s my winter card:
There are 3 layers to the wreath. Each one is trimmed a little differently and attached using foam tape, providing additional dimension and texture. The top layer of the wreath, the edge of the sentiment circle, and all the brown branches are coated with a thin layer of Rock Candy Distress stickles for a beautiful subtle glazed look.
Be sure to check out all the gorgeous DT creations here:

You did a beautiful job on this wreath! My first thought was that it looks so dimensional, and then I read that it is, indeed, dimensional. I love the shimmer and the gorgeous papers, too. Fabulous!
