Hi Everyone
Not quite so bright and beautiful here today weatherwise .. .. .. but the air is much fresher and there is a chance of some rain .. .. which isn't a bad thing really as the gardens and the reservoirs really do need it.
Sharing a card today for taking over to the Christmas Kickstart Challenge where the theme is
"Let's Wreath it Up"
and this is what I have created:
This used:
Wreath Die: Cheap and cheerful from Amazon here
Sentiment: Computer generated
Backing paper I think was part of a Christmas pad from The Works ages ago
Ribbon
Corner Rounding Punch
My Trusty Sewing Machine
A fun card to make that didn't involve me actually needing to do any die cutting at all because I had a little storage box full of leftover circles and wreath outlines from identical cards I have made previously .. .. and in a wide variety of colours. So it was just a case of gluing the outline down and fitting the circles into the gaps.
Hope your week is going well and no-one has ended up with sunburn.
I promise not to make my next post a Christmas one. I know for a lot of people it is far too early to be making them, or even thinking about them .. .. .. but I just have to squeeze them in any chance I get.

A fabulous wreath die Jules, love your choice of background papers and colours xx
It's never too early to make a start on Christmas cards and, of course, I guess that's the aim of the various seasonal challenges which run throughout the year 😉. Well done for raiding your collection of die cuts and coloured circles to come up with this beauty. Interesting effect with the striped paper for the wreath.
A fab Christmas wreath card Jules and love the traditional red and green combo.
The more the merrier Jules! I can never make enough. I love your wreath card with all the paper pieced circles. I’ve a card to share using various patterned papers, but fussy cut, silly me 🙄. Have a good weekend xxx
Hi Jules, I too have a little box of leftover circles! We're a thrifty lot us cardmakers. Love your card sooooooooo much. Thanks for playing along with Greta and me at The Christmas Kickstart, Jo x
Hi Jules,
your wreath Christmas card is stunning as usual and thanks for the link to the fabbie die ;-)
Bring on all the Christmas cards I say!!
Well done for keeping the die cuts from previous cards - I would have put them in a 'safe place' never to be found again!!
Hope you are not melting in the heat and have a wonderful weekend.
Love Eve xxx
