White Pines Christmas Card

I thought it would be fun to make a variation of the Christmas card we made at the crop last Friday night.  I've really enjoyed the White Pines paper pack and hate to see it go at the end of this month.  To create the card, I used one of the cards from the Colonial White Cards & Envelope value pack, because it was easy!  From there I added a 4 x 5 1/4" piece of B&T paper from the White Pines paper pack onto the base.

From the same sheet of paper, I cut a 2 1/4" square for part of the layered frame.  I cut a red 2 3/4" square from the Cranberry Cardstock and a Colonial White square at 2 1/2".  From the red B&T (B&T refers to the patterned papers) I cut a 4" x 1" strip and for the bling, I cut a 4" strip of gold shimmer trim.  Time to hit the Cricut!  
The wreath is from the Artistry Cartridge and is cut at 2.7" wide on Fern Cardstock.  To create the scallop piece, I used the scallop border from the Artistry cartridge and working in Cricut Design Space, I added a square from the "add shapes" selection and converted it to a rectangle. I then welded the 2 shapes together so that the finished shape was 4" x 2 1/8".  I also cut a 2" circle in Colonial White using the "add shape" selection as well.
I inked all the edges in either Fern, Cranberry or Champagne ink and stamped the sentiment using the This is Christmas stamp.  At $2.95, it's an inexpensive stamp your Christmas cards!  I used the ShinHan Sap Green marker to vary the green color on the wreath and added dimension with three small red enamel gems.
Using 3-D foam tape, I popped up the square and the Christmas Joy circle too.  (It's a bit hard to see the effect in the photo.)  Thanks for visiting and have a Merry Christmas!
