Berry Christmas wreath

Here's a classic Christmas card I created for this weeks' Featured Stamper challenge over on SCS. The featured stamper was Wendy, and man, what a gallery! Anyway, I wanted to use this wreath from DRS Designs since I hadn't yet. To create some depth, I colored the berries w/ burgundy and real red markers. I highlighted some w/ a white gel pen, traced around them w/ my bashful blue marker and also added crystal effects to them. If you click on the pic, you may be able to see it all better (another of those "cooler IRL things", ya know?!). I ran about 2/3 of the vanilla layer thru my 'bug w/ the swirl folder. I pierced along the edge of the embossing, then stamped the swirl image below. I could use that swirl stamp on everything, it is *so* cool!! The sentiment is from the large Christmas sentiment stamp that has several all on one. A filigree flower, brad and gingham finish it off! Thanks so much for stopping by and don't forget to check out our current blog challenge below and get to scrappin'!!!
