Welcome to the last Pals Blog Hop of 2014. This month we want to help you start your holiday wish list by sharing projects featuring our favorite Stampin’ Up! papers, stamps, tools and accessories. Get your wish list ready as you move along through the blog hop.
You may just be starting the blog hop or may have come from Becky Volpp at InkBlossomWithBecky on the Pals Hop. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the project.
There is nothing says Christmastime like the simple elegance of green and red together.
I am embarrassed to tell you this is the first time I inked up this stamp set. The Wonderous Wreath Bundle is fantastic. If you have not mastered this stamp and framelit set then I encourage you to watch the Stampin' Up! video here. The beautiful embossing detail is from using the Filigree Frame Embossing Folder from the Holiday Catty. It adds the perfect amount of whimsical texture to the card.
In this photo you can somewhat see that the berries on the wreath have a glimmer. I used Burgundy Red Stickles to add some blink. It looks really pretty when the light hits it.
And here is the inside of the card. Again I used a Textured Embossing Folder. I did not realize when creating this that I used a retired frame. The sentiment would also fit in one of the current Fun Frames Embossing Folders.
So what do I think is essential for eveyone's wish list? The Big Shot! I use my Big Shot with almost every project I do. It works with framelits, dies, and embossing folders. It is an essential tool in my craft room.
The next stop is Shannon Hokanson at Paper Works by Shannon on the Pals Blog Hop! Thanks for visiting and I hope to see you in 2015.
Wishing you a wonderful Christmas Season and a Happy New Year.

Oh, I love your card. So elegant as always. I love the idea of using the embossed frame in the centre for the sentiment. Will definitely be using that idea myself, so thank you for sharing it. xoxo Merry Christmas!
Beautiful, Michelle! So crisp and clean!
Beautiful Michelle!
Very elegant, Michelle!!
SIMPLE AND BEAUTIFUL!
Love the wreath with this embossing folder. Since losing the framed tulips embossing folder, this one has nicely replaced it. Nice job.
Love it! I totally agree with you….Christmas to me is crisp white with green and a beautiful red! Marry Christmas my friend!
Such a pretty CAS card, Michelle! Love it!
Perfectly framed wreath and sentiment, Michelle!
the embossed frame was very unique – very pretty card
Michelle, so pretty and the inside was a special surprise. Lynn
Pure sweetness, Michelle! Love the embossed frame for the sentiment inside!
love how clean and simple but elegant this card is
It’s so elegant. Beautiful job!
Michelle, your card today is amazing! You’ve set off the wreath perfectly with the embossing folder. And the white contrast adds even more pop. Beautiful!
This was a great way to showcase that wreath, Michelle! It is so elegant in that embossing.
Such a pretty card! I need to pull out this set. TFS
Very beautiful!
