CAS Christmas Card September Challenge

Nance is our Hostess at the CAS Christmas Card September Challenge and she is looking for a wreath on our clean and simple Christmas card!
Stamp of Approval:  Winterhaven collection:  Joy Wreath
I cut out the die and used copics to color the wreath.  I used Nuvo simply white drops for the mistletoe berries.

 We have wonderful wreaths over at the challenge blog by all the designers. 
I will look forward to seeing your wreath card in the gallery!

Heart Hugs, friends!

I love your CP wreath(I used it too). I like that you made red and white berries and added dimension to the white ones. That's one of my favorite wreaths. Have a wonderful week! XX

Your Copics coloring is so pretty, Colleen! Love the shades of green and the white shiny mistletoe berries!
I'm sorry - I didn't know that you had a knee surgery. I hope it's healing quickly and you can do what you used to do without any hassle or pain! Hideko xx

I love how you've used this wreath, Col! It's so vibrant and colorful! Love the dimension of the berries! Beautiful!

Beautiful wreath! Love the shades of green you got in the leaves, giving it more dimension than just one flat shade of green. And the Nuvo drops are gorgeous as the mistletoe berries!

Another CP wreath stamp used, but with a completely different look. Beautiful card and Copic colouring, Colleen. The Nuvo on the berries is a fabulous touch. xx

So beautiful, Col. I was thinking I must have this stamp but didn't remember it in my sets, but I don't think I bought Winterhaven or did I? I don't see it. Anyway, lovely card my friend.
