Welcome to Day 2 of the Fall Release from The Ton!!!
This Christmas Wreath Builder set is so much fun to play with!!! So many different options for creating a look that’s all your own!! I began by stamping the wreath from the set with Basil Mojito and Spiced Chai, then stamped the last layer with Versamark Ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder to create a flocked look. The poinsettia was stamped with Red Sangria, Lipstick Red and Noir, before heat embossing the center with gold embossing powder. The holly leaves were stamped with Bright Fern and Basil Mojito. Found Topaz, Red Sangria & Lipstick Red were used to stamp the berry sprigs. All of the images were fussy cut and then set aside while I created the background. I used the Haute Stripe Cling Background Stamp and Red Sangria Ink to create a checkered background. I also heat embossed the edges of a piece of white cardstock with gold embossing powder to create a mat for the checkered panel. I just LOVE the sentiments included in this set!! I chose the Have a Holly Jolly Christmas for this card and heat embossed it in gold onto a piece of white cardstock, before cutting in into a circle to fit behind my wreath. The wreath was adhered with dimensional adhesive, as were the other fussy cut images, creating a lot of dimension. I added some shimmer to the swag pieces with a Clear Wink of Stella Pen. Pale Gold Nuvo Drops were used to add some beads onto the wreath. Lastly, sequins from the newly released Frosted Spearmint Couture Mix were placed inside the wreath, while some stars from the same mix were placed onto the checkered panel.
My second card features the Good Tidings Cluster Set, which is a free gift with purchase and the Movie Title Sentiment set.
I stamped the Good Tidings Cluster Set with Caviar Ink twice onto white cardstock and colored with Copic markers. The Happy Holidays is from the Movie Title Sentiment set and was also stamped with Caviar Ink & filled in with a colored pencil. I added red Stickles to the red elements and sequins from the New Years and Sugar Cookie Couture Mixes For the finishing touch!!
