White Challenge

When I found out that this weeks challenge was  a 'white' theme, I cringed.   I thought to myself, "What, no colorful ribbon and dp papers, is that possible to make a card without all the good stuff"?

When I finished this card the other night I was quite pleased with how it all turned out.  I decided to use Minty Wreath.

I didn't want to use the tradition red and green, so I went shades of and went with something  not so vivid. Good choice? I don't know, but I like it.
Stamped image using black memento ink and colored with prismacolor pencils and gamsol. The wreath was cut out using a circle die, and I used the lacey circle die for the layer underneath.  I used my embossing folder called Seasons greetings for the square piece underneath the lacey circle. Putting the card together it looked kind of bare, so got out a bunch of my punches and started experimenting with them.  Didn't like the look of c/s  so dug out my heavier weight  vellum and tried that - much better!  So that's what I went with.
Popped the wreath up with dimensionals, added glitter to the wreath along with some white liquid pearls.  Finished it with a white satin bow.

This worked up fairly fast, I think I need to make some more of these for my Christmas cards this year!
