So Blessed

Maybe because it snowed here a couple of days this week and the temps were frigid, this flowery wreath brings a breath of spring air. The background is a 3 part stencil so it can be any color you desire. Then just match the wreath to your colors and you are done. These are a few of my favorite colors.

For the Inspiration Challenge, IC1003, we are visiting Everything Kitchens & their Pinterest Board. I was inspired by THIS plate. I loved the colors & the round plate became a flower wreath.

My card started with the die cut white background & a 3 part floral stencil. Stencil 1 is the all over leaves & I used a large stencil brush to add the Mist green on the entire stencil. I went back over the outside edges with the Beachside ink. Stencil 2 is the flowers which I used the Beachside & a little Sonata on. Stencil 3 is some detail leaves, here & there. I used Sky & a little Sonata on them. Then I picked some coordinating colors & die cut the wreath, extra leaves & 3 different flowers. The flowers were shaped just a bit & the wreath is popped up. Some stickles was added to the flower centers. The greeting was die cut & then I used detail scissors to cut the lines apart & added them to the ribbon banner die.

Flowers in Wreath

Posted on December 21, 2024 9:48 PM by Julie 1 Comment

Today, I have an easy card using only a few dies, a stencil and a floral image. The flowers are a two part image..the outline and the solid images to ink that fill in the color for you. A little stenciling on the background and a gold twig wreath to surround the flowers.

A big congrats to Rochelle, the newest Featured Stamper FS933! She had a fabulous scrapbook page gallery and it’s fun to turn a page into a card. I chose THIS page to case. I kept the goldish color wreath on the right side w/ some patterning on the left side & greeting below, but I put the flowers in the wreath instead of a picture, and turned mine into a birthday card instead of a Christmas page.

For my card, I put the white card stock in my Misti & stamped the black outline first. Then I lined up the solid flower & leaf insides & inked them w/ a few colors of red & yellow for the flowers & 3 shades of green for the leaves. I used the circle mask to cover the flowers & lightly stenciled the flourish first w/ the mocha ink then w/ a little galaxy gold Brilliance. A dull gold metallic was used for the twig wreath & I also backed the main panel w/ brushed gold. The greeting was stamped & die cut & because it’s all on one line, I cut it apart to fit on the right side.

Star Wreath

I have a very shimmery, all die cut card today. All of the card stock is metallic so it really catches the light. This could be a Thank You card for a lovely Christmas gift, or for a lovely Christmas or New Year’s Party. Change the greeting and it’s a Christams or New Year’s card. The colors would also work for Hanukkah.

It’s my turn to host the Inspiration Challenge (IC992) and we are visiting IMAGELLA & their Pinterest Board. I was inspired by THIS picture.

The large background die was cut twice. Once out of a dark blue metallic & again out of a lighter blue metallic then pieced together inside the frame. I liked the 2 colors together & thought it added more interest by alternating the colors. The wreath was cut out of a dk silver & a third, silvery blue metallic. The stars were all die cut out of a lighter silver metallic & the moon was done in a darker silver metallic. I did the same with the Thanks greeting & shadow. I added some sprigs out of the blues & silvers to tuck under the largest star.
