So here's my try at it......
I colored one with a red bow and the other green...
All I had to do is use Versa Mark and Gold embossing and then just a little coloring... it was so easy this way. I could not believe I was trying to make it into such a big thing.
Here's a closer look.............
and I kept the inside simple too, there was a small wreath in the set so I used that and then a saying from another Flourishes set called Winter berries.
The base card I used is NEW to me card stock that a Blogger that I watch daily uses and after talking with her about it I had to get some.... Go to The Spotted Chick and at the bottom of her post on the Nov. 10th you'll see: ENVIRONMENT Desert Storm Card Stock - 8 1/2 x 11 in 100 lb Cover Smooth 100% Recycled, order it right from there!!!

OMG! Dotty this is just stunning! I love the gold wreath and it works perfectly with the Kraft cardstock. I'm so glad you like the cardstock as much as I do. It's my "go to" cardstock now. Thank you for letting your readers know about it as well!
Your two wreaths look gorgeous, Dotty! It's amazing how much coloring time it saves by doing the embossing, and the gold is beautiful. I've done this wreath (or was it the other one?) in copper embossing on ivory, too, with no coloring and it still looked great!
