The little holly stamp from the set makes a fabulous wreath. I stamped it in Gumball Green, added more greenery with the little fir sprig image from Lovely as a Tree and dotted on berries with a marker. The sentiment tag was given a bit of interest with piercing - one of my favourite embellishments at the moment.
I gave the wreath a bakers twine bow and a touch of sparkle with Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details - two fantastic ways to pep up a card and for less than a fiver for both, now that's what I call a bargain!

I seem to have spent quite a lot of the weekend in the supermarket this weekend. While I was there I picked up the store magazine called 'Real Food' which my daughter came across while helping me unpack the bags. "Ah - Real Food!" she said. "None of this pretend food you've been fobbing us off with!" The cheek!
I'll be back with some little boxes tomorrow - see you then!
