I used Stampin’ Up!’s Abstract Impressions stamp set to make this wreath with the Stamparatus. I used a template I made using the 3″ framelit from Layering Squares Framelits to create the template.

This card is easy to create, however, it isn’t quick! Book a party or privae class with me during November and I will teach you how to create wreath cards with the template and your Stamparatus.

Today’s card uses Gold Metallic Thread, Stitched Shapes Framelits, and Glitter Enamel Dots with Stampin’ Up!’s Blossoming Basket Bundle.

Do you like it? If, so leave a comment. I think this would be a great card for Mother’s Day.

In January I held our Occasions Catalog Kickoff Event using new products from the Sale-A-Bration and Occasions Catalogs. Carol’s sample box was filled with Dove Chocolates which fit and matched perfectly with their rose colored foil wrappers. The heart punched in the box front for the window was used inside the matching card.

I love the ” pop” Foil Frenzy Specialty Designer Series Paper gives to this card using Stampin’ Up!’s Heartfelt Blooms (free Sale-A-Bration set page 4)

I stamped the card with Basic Gray and used Stampin’ Blends to color the flowers and leaves. Quick and easy.
Happy stamping!
