Hi Everyone
I hope you are all keeping well and finding things to keep you occupied whilst at home. I certainly haven't run out of jobs and crafty goodies to keep me amused.
I would be more than happy to spend much more time like this .. .. especially if it means all this loss of life would stop. I really can't get my head around the numbers anymore.

Certainly the weather here will have helped with the lock-down scenario we are under at the moment here in the UK. It has been super windy, interspersed with rain and very minimal sunny spells. So a typical English bank holiday weekend I guess LOL!!
Anyway, after having my Christmas goodies out yesterday I decided to tackle Christmas card number 3 for May and this is my offering:
This used:
Image: Card-io Clear Stamp Set: Oriental Blossom (the branch in the set is repeat stamped to create a wreath)
Sentiment: LOTV: Digital Christmas Sentiment Tags
Backing Paper: My Lovely Studio "Gingham"
Nail Heads
Ribbon
My Trusty Sewing Machine
This is for taking over to Jo's Christmas Kickstart Challenge where this month's theme is "wreathed in Christmas smiles" .. .. as in show a wreath on your creation.
There is still time to play along if you are in the mood for Christmas creations.
Catch you again tomorrow .. .. if all goes to plan.

Love your wreath Jules and those pin heads look very dimensional and make great baubles! An unusual combination of cards that work so well together. Hugs xx
Beautiful layout the gingham looks wonderful against the Kraft then that fabulous wreath and bow stunning card
A super Christmas card Jules, you have created a beautiful wreath.
It is getting warmer here, the sun is shining and the wind is starting to drop thank goodness, the boy's are out with the dog at the moment - I'm having a lazy morning.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Well, my face is certainly wreathed in smiles after seeing your card, Jules! It's just gorgeous and so obviously your fabulous signature style. Thanks so much for joining Robyn and I at Christmas Kickstart again, Jo x
This is super, what a great card, I love the wreath, especially with the heart baubles on it. Ive now stopped watching the news as the death toll was really scary. Typical bank holiday weather here too, very stormy! Hazel xx
Love this card Jules, the rustic look is right up my street. It was very windy indeed yesterday, I had a pair of shorts blow right off the washing line into the pear tree!! Much nicer today though xx
What a fabulous bow and a really lovely image, great make.

Beautiful card, your wreath is fabulous with those little hearts and amazing bow xx
Looks great!
The black and white gingham is really popular here too. I am introducing it into my Christmas decor. I am slowly creating new ornaments and baubles etc using this black and white gingham theme .
Jules, this wreath card is simply beautiful, I love all the elements - your stamped twiggy wreath with the 'nail' ornaments, and the lovely layers topped with the glorious bow and tag... thanks so much for sharing with Christmas Kickstart, Robyn
