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.

close up:

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.
