On the 5th day of December the Tim tag looked like this: http://timholtz.typepad.com/my_weblog/2 ... tag-5.html Love the simple elegance of the wreath, but I'm still not sold on those reverse image stamps.

I can't believe it but I have already done #5 my own way. I used the Tattered Florals to make my wreath. The top right flower and cut the petals. Got a little better photo I think. Monica I just stamped with my regular stamps on the glossy card stock.

When I cut the foliage it didn't look much like a wreath! I followed Tim's idea of using little pearls for the mistletoe berries after I stamped this design and then glued some foliage to each side. I love that stamp.

That is a beautiful stamp, Kath!

Here is my #5-five golden rings with a nod to the ring-necked pheasant who it really refers to. The wreath idea was just so suitable for the 5 rings that I just went with it.

I love that AI background technique. I had no reverse stamps so I made a general background using a stamp from a set Kathryn gave me. Very elegant! The wreath is some of that leafy trim you can buy by the yard. I love that stuff.

This is not a good photo. It looks really harsh. For some reason, the white tag through the plastic is looking purple. Ick!
And the upper left corner really isn't on fire.

Here is my day 5. Details on my blog. This is probably my closest to the real TT so far.

Marianne and Rachelle they are both great tags. I love that we all have such a different take on these.

I never thought of using that punch, Rachelle, it would have been a great opportunity. I got stuck on the idea of the leaves by the yard. I really like the music paper leaves. I might have to punch some out ready for the next wreath.

I just used the white ink on the tag after I painted it with Martha Stewart red paint.
I used the WOW stamps
I did get it alittle croocked. I tried to cut the wreth from the cricut and after 25 cuts I got 4 that were usable.

It may have been a challenge but the wreath is adorable!
