Merry Monday # 74, Festive Friday # 16

 
Merry Monday has a new image for this week.
You need to use green and white with some woodgrain!
At first I couldn't think of anything to make for this, then I
came upon this woodgrain paper from MME "dolled up"
 
If you want to play along and get started on your Christmas cards go to
Merry Monday  and play along.
Paper:  PTI select white, new leaf, MME dolled up
ink:  PTI new leaf
stamps:  Holly Jolly, Stylish Sentiments: Holiday
ribbon:  PTI white
circle nestabilities for the frame of the circle 
dies:  Holly Jolly

And this will also work for the Festive Friday Challenge.
The Trigger word is "Peace"
 
Thanks for taking a look!

    That Merry Monday challenge works perfectly for our 'peace' challenge, Colleen, so...great combo of challenges, here! (I don't know why that fresh green speaks 'peace' to me...but it does! Had to use it on my card, too!) Beautiful card!!! Thanks so much for joining us again!!!

    Beautiful card - I love the wood look you added. It looks as if the wreath is hanging on wooden planks. So creative!!
