Small is beautiful

Yesterday I tried to make a thank-you card which ended up in the bin. This sketchfrom Less is More though, lent itself beautifully to something sweet and pretty. It's such a simple idea but could be interpreted in so many ways as will, no doubt, be demonstrated over the next week. 
I used a mish mash of stamps from various sets and was very pleased that they all worked together. 

I think it  would work as a Christmas wreath which I intend to try out. I've interpreted it very literally but I think bows and Holly or mistletoe would work. I really shouldn't be thinking about the Winter Festival in spring.
The stamps were from Kanban, Inkadinkado, Hobby Art, Majestix and Kaiser craft.
