Feather & Frost Christmas Wreath Card idea

I love square cards because they are a bit unexpected, but so fun! I created this square card featuring the Stampin' UP! Feather & Frost stamp set and the Layering Squares framelit dies. I also used a bit of an unexpected Christmas color combo of Poppy Parade and Shaded Spruce!

Directions:

I started by die cutting the Whisper White Scalloped Square in the Big Shot, then stamping the flower like a clock, at 12 o'clock, 6 o'clock, 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock, then stamping the flower in between, in Poppy Parade ink.
I masked the flowers and stamped several leaves from the Candy Cane Season stamp set in Shaded Spruce ink.
I stamped the banner from Birthday Banners in Shaded Spruce, die cut it with the Bunch of Banners framelits, and then stamped the LOVE & JOY in Poppy Parade (it's from the Great Joy set (pg 22 Holiday catalog).
The sweet bow is stamped with Shaded Spruce ink, and it's from the Candy Cane bundle!
Final touch, add logs of bling with Gold Metallic pearls!

What do you think of this Stampin' UP! Christmas color combo? Vibrant and bright Poppy Parade, paired with the elegant and stately Shaded Spruce!?

The Layering Square framelits are definitely one of the stars of the show here!! I layered the Whisper White scalloped square onto Shaded Spruce, then another Whisper White square then onto a 4-1/4" square Poppy Parade folded card base.
