I chose to use the last colour scheme, Pink, Green, Kraft, and White, and came up with this card using the new Clearly Besotted 'Joy to the World ' stamp set.
I stamped the base wreath in green on a kraft panel and then over-stamped with the berry wreath in Versamark ink and added white embossing powder. Next I die cut and stamped the bow before adding glitter with a Wink of Stella brush pen, and attached it to the panel with foam tape.
The sentiment came from the CB 'Most Wonderful' set and I stamped and embossed it in white before adding a little pink heart. At this point it looked as though it needed something else so I added the 'joy' sentiment to the centre of the wreath and added a mat of white card to the panel before mounting it to the base card with foam tape to add a little dimension.
Thanks for stopping by and why not join us over at Holly Jolly Christmas this time.

Oh wowzee Carol, this is fabulous!! Brilliant!! Excellent!! I love Clearly Besotted stamps but stick to the sentiments only, as I just don't find myself able to "do" CAS as well as you can!! xx
Oh this is beautiful, what a lovely elegant card.
I love the clean and simple design, your card is so sophisticated and beautiful. The bow with the glitter is so cute, and I love the textured craft card.
Just an amazing Christmas card. I love that you used that Berry wreath stamp over the green wreath. It is perfection. And, your bow is just beautiful with the Wink of Stella. All I can say is, WOW!

This is delightful. So simple, but so much for the eye to enjoy thanks to your extra layers and little touches. I love the heart with the sentiment. Thanks for joining us at STAMPlorations this month.
You picked such a pretty color scheme, and your card is just gorgeous. I absolutely love the texture on your main panel--I don't think I've seen that one before.
Carol, this is just stunning! The color combo is fantastic and your attention to all the little details makes it super special!

Thud!! Carol, this is a total winner! Adding that white mat makes it look like a framed photograph standing on a side table!! It is elegant beyond words!! Is that a normal SU or Bizzell textured card stock or did you use an impression plate? Have a great weekend! Hugs, Darnell
