Hello and welcome. I am back today with a Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge.
This was a fun sketch to work with and I had a few ideas for it as I have a few new holiday sets to break in.
I particularly love the vellum embossed Peace banner across the wreath. It is hard to see in the photo so here is a close up. It is really very pretty and was hard to capture that beauty in a photo.
Once I decided on the Peaceful Wreath stamp set, which is in the Holiday Catalog, this card came together fairly quickly. I absolutely LOVE wreaths…for every and all occasions so whenever a wreath stamp set comes out, it comes to my house. Stampin’ Up! has several great wreath sets right now and they all coordinate with the Wonderful Wreath Framelits. After I stamped and cut the wreath, I colored it with markers and highlighted the berries with some Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details. With the Dazzling Details and the Red Foil paper this card sparkles and shines!
The cardstock and ink for the inside sentiment is Real Red and the Designer Series paper is from the Merry Moments paper stack.
I hope you enjoyed today’s card and I thank you for taking some time to check it out.
Have a wonderful Monday!

Rosanne, I don’t know where to start. There are so many things I love about this. Love that you turned the sketch, Love the vellum sentiment! Love that you use the plaid DSP for the background. Excellent job of coloring the wreath! Thanks for playing with Pals Paper Arts.
Roseanne this is so pretty! Love the dimension and colors. The vellum sentiment is such a special touch. Thanks for playing with the PPA this week.
Rosanne – this shiny foil gives a perfect backdrop for your gorgeous wreath. Great choice of papers! Love the way the vellum lays perfectly across the wreath. Thank you so much for playing along with this week’s Pals Paper Arts sketch challenge. Glad to see you participating.
What a fantastic execution of this week’s PPA sketch. Love the foil, love the wreath, love the vellum banner, love the clean and even lines of all your layers! Wonderfully done, Rosanne! Thanks for joining us at PPA this week!
Roseanne, the red foil center really makes the wreath pop off you card. I love your use of the vellum strip, it’s perfectly placed over the wreath. I don’t doubt this card is even prettier in person! Thank you for joining us this week at the Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge!
Rosanne – Congrats on your pick as a favorite over at PPA this week. Love your card and glad to see you selected.
