Weekly Wednesday Giveaway!

 Hi bloggers!  Welcome back to the second weekly card giveaway!  Leave a comment on today's post if you would like to be in the drawing.  I will announce the winner on Saturday's post.  Today's card is a Heartfelt Creations card from the samples of my CHA show in July.  I stamped my sentiment in black archival ink at the bottom of a piece of coconut white card.  I matted this piece with a thin Rich Red card mat.  I used the Grand Squares to cut a large white frame.  Using another one of the dies in the set, I  simply embossed a decorative line around the frame edge.  I added mounting foam to the back of the frame to raise it for dimension and attached it to a piece of white card. Next I cut about a dozen of the leafy sprig from the Ornamental Add On set in white card. I glued them into place in a circular fashion to form a wreath shape within the frame.  I allowed some of the leaf pieces to fall over the edge of the frame.  As finishing touches, I used the Berry Red PVA Glue to add red holly berries to the wreath.  Around the sentiment, I scattered small flatback pearls as accents.  I finished the card with my signature double white pierced mat layers.  This is a really easy, but elegant Christmas card you can make for the upcoming season.  Hope you like it!  Don't forget to leave a comment if you would like a chance to win it!  Finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 8 3/4" in size.  All for now, Sue x

A computer tantrum yesterday meant I missed this. I just love the simple, white on white leaf wreath.
