Grateful for YOU! September 2013 Blog Hop - Papertrey Ink

 




 Hello Friends,
Here with a quick post before the end of this month's Papertrey Ink Blog Hop all about wreaths.  Here is the inspiration photo:



  

The idea of doing some "bronze" embossing onto book paper with Wreath for All Seasons came into my head and I ended up making two similar cards.  

The sentiment is from Basket of Blessings.  
Thanks for taking a look at my cards.  I couldn't decide about the twine bow on the wreath so I made one with and one without. :)

    Jill, love these!! Great idea to stamp in bronze on the text paper. It's a tough one, but I think I do prefer the bow, it ties in with your base so well.

    Lovely cards, Jill - so elegant with the embossing and pretty script in the font. The text background really looks great - something I would not have used to achieve an elegant look, and you have carried it off so well! VERY PRETTY! hugs, de

    Both are great, Jill. Love the gold embossing, and the text behind the wreath. I do like the twine bow, so fall like and country like.
