Holiday 2015 Collection: A Wreath on Every Door

Welcome back y’all! Today we are diving right in to our third set of the new Happiest Holiday release. (Scroll down to see yesterday’s Spice It Up and Tuesday’s Botanical Tree peeks!) I’m just gonna spill it, today is all about ravishing wreaths.

One of the most enduring and welcoming symbols of warmth, comfort, endurance, and reverence—you cannot go wrong with a wreath! It can be the simplest circlet of laurel leaves. It can be an extravaganza of texture, color, and variety. Whatever your pleasure, I’ve designed a set that is offers many options to make it your very own.

Now here’s the kind of funny part. I’ve named this set: Wreaths Plain and Fancy. Anyone who knows me (or has been following Power Poppy for the last year and half) can probably tell that it is verrrrrrrrrry challenging for me to keep things “plain.” I like to add more details, more curling tendrils, more berries ... This quote by fashion icon Iris Apfel sums up my philosophy pretty well:

“More is more, and less is a bore.”

We’ll have a bounty of wreaths to share! Wonderful cards by Katie Sims, Stacy Morgan, and Tosha Leyendekker.

That wonderful quote aside... when it comes to making a large batch of Christmas cards, things need to be fairly simple to keep the process moving. So in Wreaths Plain and Fancy, I’ve created a set that gives you two wreaths to choose from (one is no-holds-barred and packed with visual interest, the other is rather straightforward and sweet) AND THEN—this is the really fun part—there are interchangeable goodies that you can stamp into the center of the wreath to add an extra bit of whimsy. There are a whole bunch of sentiments that will fit inside the wreaths, too! Gosh, you could just use the little accents on their own if you want to. Whether stamping these wreaths in a single color or colored up in full splendor, I think this set will be a Power Poppy go-to!

And now it’s time to go see what the ladies of the Bloom Brigade have been working on with Wreaths Plain and Fancy! I just know you’ll be delighted and inspired when you travel ’round to their blogs!! Come on, let’s go see...
