So Grateful with WPLUS9

I've been wanting to play along with Maureen Merritt's Throwback Thursday Challenge for WPlus9. Maureen used Fair Isle backgrounds and that set is still sitting in my wishlist on their website so I thought I'd give it a try using "Merry & Bright"

I stamped a pine pattern across the top and bottom of the stamped panel and added the candle and more sprigs in the center using fall colors instead of Christmas colors. I think this set can be used for so many occasions, not just Christmas.

I'll also be entering this card into the following challenges:
