Happy Saturday!

Thanks for stopping by. Big thanks to Danderella who let me borrow her dienamics wreath from MFT to play with. LOVE it!

Here is version one - I meant to place the wreath a bit lower and lengthen the ribbon just like in Laurel's inspiration photo (below), but this is how it came out, so I played around with it and came up with...

Version Two - just added a row of buttons. I think it came out okay despite the design blooper. I am going to play with it more since I think it could be a perfectly pretty CAS card without the row of buttons if I lengthen that ribbon.

Once I uploaded my pics I realized that you can't see my embossing very well, so I tried a side shot. You will have to trust me, the embossed "brick wall" background is much more apparent in person and I love how it looks. 

Today's card is for three challenges:

Inspired By - this is the inspiration photo - love it!

and

JUGS - embossing

and

Cute Card Thursday - red & green

I would also like to share at:

and

Jingle Belles - Anything (holiday) goes

Wow, I can't believe I managed to fit in so many - it helps that there are so many holiday challenges right now. I was totally inspired to get crafting even though what I should be doing is "get addressing" the cards I already have made to get them in the mail, lol. Oh well, I still have time!!!

Have a fantastic weekend!
