This is probably one of my favorite Christmas cards I created this year. It is so simple! The teal, grey, and silver combination is just so elegant! For the Christmas Wishes Wreath Card, I used products I had on hand and some different products to create it.

Christmas Wishes Wreath Card
The first thing I did was to cover a piece of 80lb Neenah Solar white cardstock with a double-sided adhesive sheet. Using the Simon Says Stamp Ring Wreath Wafer Die, I diecut the wreath with the Spellbinders Platinum die cutting machine. I punched out all of the little circles and extra pieces. Next, I pulled the adhesive release paper from the outline of the wreath and placed a sheet of Deco Foil over it. I used my die cutting machine to apply pressure to the diecut and the Deco Foil so the foil would stick to the diecut. Run it through without a die and it’s probably a good idea to use a piece of typing paper between the plates and the diecut.
Next, I die cut snowflakes using the My Favorite Things Snowflakes Die-namics in three different colors of teal cardstock. I covered each of the die cuts with Clear Wink of Stella. Offset each snowflake in a stack to adhere each snowflake in the center. I added a drop of Nuvo Glitter Drops in White Blizzard to the center of the top snowflake.
The patterned paper I used was from several Christmases ago. It is from Stampin’ Up! Use a stitched frame die to cut the panel.
Finally, the MISITI allowed me to align my sentiment exactly where it should be without making a mistake. I stamped the sentiment with Versamark ink and heat embossed with Silver embossing powder. To get a super smooth finish, stamp and emboss twice. I adhered the grey patterned paper on a side fold landscape 100lb Neenah Solar White card base. Use tiny dots of adhesive on the back side of the wreath to adhere it to the panel. I took some silver thread and bunched it up to place behind the snowflakes. Then I adhered everything down with liquid adhesive.
