Have you noticed the All Around Wreath bundle in the annual catalog? Click here; it's quite the gem! So many occasions are covered in the greetings and die-cuts.
Marilyn made this pretty Christmas themed wreath for our Team Christmas card swap.
She chose to use two shades of green here; Mossy Meadow with Pear Pizzazz along with a few touches of Gold. The pears are heat embossed in Gold powder as well as the shimmery thread.
Other details:
The greeting is die-cut with the Hippo & Friends dies seen here
The Vanilla layer is textured with the Pinewood Planks embossing folder
She used the same wreath die-cut but in two colors, separating them slightly on the card.
There are lots to choose from – mostly scrapbooking but many could be used for card making as well. There is lots of card stock, some dies & stamps, plus memory keeping albums and page protectors too.
Below are most of the products available. If you click on one it will take you to the online store.
I stamped the sweet dragonfly repeatedly along the right edge of my White card base. I twisted the image each time and made sure they were touching or very close to each other. After stamping I fussy cut the edge off from the dragonflies. I think it took less than a minute to trim. I think it's well worth the effort!
The Happiest Day stamp set is adorable; I love the whimsical dragonflies and the bold greetings. Having two separate images for the wings means you can change up the colors for 2-toned results. See the set here.
Inks – Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink, Melon Mambo, Memento Black
Other – Something Fancy dies, Paper Snips, Iridescent striped ribbon, Full of Life DSP
I love the way the colors fade from top to bottom mimicking the Full of Life Designer Series Paper. I achieved this with just 3 colors of ink, but stamping off for a few of them.
Do you ever stamp off to get a lighter hue of ink? Sometimes it's the perfect shade!
Happiest Day card with video tutorial; a simple layout with a gorgeous look
On last week's Live video I chose the Happiest Day stamp set as my featured product. It was discounted during the 3 day stamp sale but you can see it here.Here's one of the cards I made:
I chose to use our 2023-25 In Colors; Pretty in Pink, Peach Pie and Petunia Pop along with Black. We have glimmer paper in these colors too so I added three strips to the card base at a diagonal. See it here. The strips adds a bit of a whimsical look that matches these cute dragonflies.
For the hearts I used that same glimmer paper along with the Humble Home Builder punch (out of stock currently).
The circle die-cut for the greeting is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. These dies are back in stock now! The White rectangle is a die-cut from the Deckled Rectangles seen here.
