deck the halls...

Okay, I love this sketch by Laura...I continuously seem to be smitten by scallops..
It ended up being more of a challenge and at first glance you might think, hmm...a wreath, that's nice.
Well, that wreath started out as Making Memories Glitter Leaves...


My intention was to use the sprig in full but it was too big and a snip, snip here and a snip, snip there and voila! It became a wreath! I unearthed some stickles to use as the holly berries...

I used MME and Bo Bunny papers...the journaling square is MME...it has faux stitching on it but all the other panels I machine stitched. Check out my old skool scallops:) Gotta love that Fiskars template...I remember as a young kid I use to LOVE stencils...I guess I still do:)

Anyways, I topped off my card with SU Alpine felt ribbon...come on SU execs...don't you realize when you HAVE a good thing? IMHO, they should carry this stuff year round...in their 48'ish colors...I actually gifted a spool of it to my DEAR friend LB...she saw this card when she was over and actually gasped at the ribbon...not at the card...LOL...so for her bday I gave her one of my spools...she knows that it is discontinued...she knows what a big deal that was for me...the hoarder...

So there you have it...I definitely had a BALL putting together my 2S4Y DT Call cards...I couldn't be more thrilled with Laura and Kazan's new additions to their team...come on...those ladies are fantabulous...{a big woot woot to my fellow MCS DT Member Sarah Martina!!!!}

Thanks so much for stoppin' by!!!!
