Happy Tuesday!!  You will be so happy to see the theme for SUO Challenges this week – CAS (Clean and Simple) Holiday.  Yes, for all of you who are like me and are behind on your cards, we have loads of inspiration to help you create fabulous cards that are easy to duplicate.

A couple of weeks ago when I was working on another wreath card, I noticed that my Daydream Medallions set would make a cool wreath too.  Finally I got the chance to try out my idea.  I have to say that I really like this stamp as a wreath…a lot!!!  The size of this stamp lends itself to a clean and simple (CAS) layout and this one is a go-to for me.  Basic but the frame gives a little extra pop of color.  Of course no wreath is complete without a big bow so I added one of my “potato masher” double bows (tutorial here).  I love these bows!!  The sentiment from Snowflake Soiree is just the right scale for this, don’t you think?  Finally, I added some tiny Basic Pearls that I colored.  I simply love those little pearls!

When you see what the design team has created, you will want to copy every one!!  Such a talented team!  We can’t wait to see what you have to show us so make sure you post your Clean and Simple Holiday cards for us to see!!

Back tomorrow with a new sketch designed by me for Freshly Made Sketches.  Have a great day!
