Welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. Please be sure to visit everyone’s blog to see the great projects they are sharing with you. My card features the Seasonal Wreath Stamp Set, the All-Around Wreath Dies and the Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper. We are all working with a sketch challenge this week – here’s my card:
And here’s the sketch we’re using:
To begin, stamp the fall wreath image from the Seasonal Wreaths stamp set with Early Espresso ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock. Use the All Around Wreath Dies to cut it out, and set it aside to dry thoroughly. I used the Stamparatus to be sure to get a crisp stamped image. Use the Stamparatus Deluxe Foam Mat with photopolymer stamps for best results.
Use a circle die from the Layering Circles Die Set to cut an opening in a panel of Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper to reveal the Very Vanilla layer that will align with the wreath opening. Then glue the DSP layer to the Very Vanilla mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Use the Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment from the Country Home stamp set with Cajun Craze ink centered in the opening.
Wrap Cajun Craze Linen Thread from the Come To Gather Ribbon Combo Pack around the right side of the completed layer, securing the ends on the back with tape. I chose to wrap it seven times, you may choose more or less. Then adhere the completed layer to the front of the Early Espresso card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Color the wreath using Stampin’ Blends using fall colors. The product listing at the end of this post has all the colors I used. Then adhere the wreath to the card front using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a bow made from Cajun Craze Linen Thread to complete.
Use Cajun Craze ink to stamp the sentiment from the Country Home stamp set on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock before adhering it inside the card base with Liquid Glue.
