Has anyone else noticed that I seem to be fixated on birds this year? And wreaths, too, I guess. This is another entry for
The Card Concept; kraft, red, and white do make a pretty color combination, and add some sparkle to it, and I'm a happy girl! There is a wonderful selection of glitter cardstock this year, and they're a much easier way to get that sparkle into a card without the mess of "real" glitter.
The wreath is an older Hero Arts one called Wreath of Leaves. It was stamped in Stazon
Cotton White twice to make it nice and full, then I simply added my glittery elements: Wplus9's
Hand Lettered Holiday sentiment, Memory Box's
Perched Reed Bird, and some punched circles for berries. I'd put it into the Clean and Layered category.
Thanks for stopping by today. It's BRRRRRRR here - 23 degrees this morning! We had our first light dusting of snow earlier this week. Thank goodness the sun is shining! Enjoy your weekend!
ETA: I'm also adding this to the
A2ZScrapbooking November challenge, Anything Goes, and
Inspiration Journal's November Challenge: Happy Holidays!

Great to catch up on your lovely work Lin! Your glittery red bird and berries are just right with the craft and the wreath my friend! Warm ;) hugs to you--we're freezing all over the country, eh?
Beautiful Lin, I love the shimmer!
Love this beautiful wreath with all the glitter! I am linked up next to your card at The Card Concept....thanks again for sharing this challenge.
THat's beautiful. The glittery accents are just gorgeous. I love glitter paper, too, as long as the glitter stays put on the paper.
Such a pretty card, Lin! Your white wreath is stamped perfectly and I love the contrast with the red shimmer - just gorgeous!
Really cold here too - 16 degrees at the moment. Stay warm my friend! ♥
What a gorgeous way to use these images! The colors are perfect against the kraft card stock! I am with you on glitter paper. They are so easy to work with....without the MESS :) Stay warm, big sis! It's chilly out there in my neck of the woods , too!

Lovely design Lin! Just the right amount of sparkle!
You are putting that glitter paper to great use, Lin! I love the red and white against the kraft.
WOW does that red glitter paper look ever so pretty against the white card base!!
Who doesn't love glitter paper? That's the real question here. Keep pumping out those wreath cards because they are awesome! Stay warm! I just pulled out my winter coat here this morning. Sigh*

I am always fixated on birds and your bright glittery bird is so cheery and festive! Thanks for joining us at the Card Concept!
What a great card! I love glitterpaper, but don't use it much, since I think I'll will overpower it. But you nailed it with this one; beautiful!
Oh YES! Great look with the kraft card!
And here I find myself at your blog again! I love your bird and wreath with its glittery elements. Just stunning Lin!
Simply beautiful. I love the touch of red glitter paper. I agree, it is much easier to use then actual glitter.
