Classic Leaf Ring

I have used a die and impression plate from Simon Says Stamp's DieCember® release, to make a birthday card...

I die cut the wreath, then a number of the leaf pieces.  I adhered the pieces to the back of the wreath and then adhered the flowers to it.  I added some enamel dots to the flowers, and adhered the whole wreath to a gray panel that I had ran through the Weaving Plate.  Funny thing happened...the plate also makes deep impressions in the cardstock, and when I took the gray cardstock out from the plate, one of the corners fell off...so I cut the other three off...really like it, though!  What do you think?   I also die cut the sentiment and layered.  I added a "wishes" sentiment that I stamped on vellum and white embossed.  I cut it out, and put under the "birthday".  I popped up the whole panel on the card.  Here's a close up...

This is my last card for the year...I hope you all have a happy new year...a year filled with hope and happiness...and lots of love and laughter!!  Please take care!  Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa
