Six Christmas Wreath Cards

Hello!  MANY years ago, I got this Christmas card kit from Stampin' Up. I don't actually remember ordering it as it's a photo card kit with the idea being you add a 4 x 6 photo inside the ivory scalloped frame. That made me think it was probably a gift from my then-Stampin' Up demonstrator. At any rate, I pulled it out and decided to USE IT UP. 

Well, I didn't actually get to use the whole kit, but I did use half of it and some more really REALLY old patterned paper from my stash, so I'm calling it a win. The Kraft card bases are 5 x 7" and have the polka dot strip printed on one edge. The kit came also came with with lovely ivory envelopes, the scalloped frames, the sentiment strips and the winter sprig that I added inside the cards. The elements were all stickers at one time, but they are so old I didn't trust that the adhesive would hold up so I ended up attaching everything with glue.

I created the wreath's from a (retired) bundle from Stampin' Up, and stamped sentiments (both stamp sets are long retired).

Below shows the inside of three of the cards - they were all done pretty much the same.

I was so happy with how these cards turned out and especially enjoyed using so many older items from my stash. The patterned papers are from Magenta (2003), Provocraft (also 2003) and Daisy D (about the same age). The Simply Sent Card Kit was dated 2006.
