LeAnn has chosen evening evergreen, soft succulent and crumb cake with a dessert of using a die. I only have the c.s. so subbed DOX's and stamped on bristol and diecut. Embossed crumb cake with ef and swiped frost white all over. Distressed edges of crumb cake and soft succulent, sponged edges with more rustic wilderness and adhered to a base of evening evergreen. Joy is diecut from shimmery white and added the neutral of that and merry merlot. The burgundy stickles was a good match for the merry merlot I thought. Used nuvo brush to add glimmer to the bow although it doesn't show in the pic. I used a dot runner on the back of Joy and adhered it. Happy to get this one done. Thanks LeAnn for this challenge.

Love your idea to distress your background behind that pretty Christmas wreath. I can see the glimmer on your bow and of course the burgundy Stickles are just perfect for your wreath.

Wonderful use of the challenge colors! Love the wood-grain embossing with the whitewash look. Pretty wreath. I like how the die-cut joy overlaps. Great card!
