Crafting Christmas Day 13 - Putting on the Glitz

I have been dying to break out my Crafter's Companion stamps and make something SHINY!  That's what the CC Challenge Blog is asking for this month: a card or project that uses a Crafter's Companion Stamp and Make it Sparkle.
I had an idea to make a Christmas wreath using some CDs from my stash, but circles and I have never been too friendly.  Then I saw someone use plastic lids of assorted sizes and made a wreath out of them.  Well, darn if I couldn't find my inspiration again, so I just tried to piece a wreath together myself.  I stamped, colored and cut out the four images from the Cute Companions Christmas Magic stamp set by Jayne Nestorenko and the CC inspirational team.  I like the way they are designed, as you can use them to create ornaments, or to put together with another stamp from the set to make snow globes.
So once I used my Creative Memories circle cutter on the images, I was able to cut out three more sizes of circles for my wreath.
I cut out a chipboard circle base on which to adhere my circles.  I started with the largest, all made from CTMH patterned papers (thanks, Melissa) and placed them on the base, using some dimensional tape on some but not all the circles.  Once I had them all down, I started adding snowflakes and stars and bling. 

Did I mention that my images ooze shimmery Stickles?!  Here's a close-up of one of them.
Yes, you're right, I even Stickled some of the lines on the patterned paper circle!

Of course, having put a shine on the images, I couldn't leave my white snowflakes to be ignored, now, could I?
 
No, I thought you'd agree with me!  So for the several snowflakes I added to my wreath (thank you, Linda) I added Diamond Stickles, jewels, and Skittles.  

Here's a close-up of one of the many snowflakes I added to the wreath, highlighting the extra glitz I put on the whole project.  I hope you like my recycled, upcycled paper wreath.  i also hope you have time to join in the December challenge at the Crafter's Companion Challenge Blog.  Their prize is da' bomb!!  And as always, keep on crafting!
