A Wreath double

Today I'm back with a Christmas card of the week 'double-bubble'!!

For the Christmas card I have used the set Wondrous Wreath which has some matching framelits of course!

I've used the colours Pear Pizzazz, Garden Green and Real Red.

Then, I've used exactly the same design for a non-Christmas design.

For this one I've used the colours I've used a favourite combo of mine - Sweet Sugarplum and Rich Razzleberry.

Christmas Wreath

For my next wreath this week I have used the same design as my previous post but with different colours it has been turned in to a Christmas Wreath!

Using the same stamps but the colours Old Olive, Garden Green and Real Red it gives a totally different look.

I have still used the Rose Garden stamp and thinlit but the sentiment is from the Wondrous Wreath set this time.

Birthday Wreath

The first of several wreaths that might crop up this week!

This uses the set Wondrous Wreath to demonstrate that it is not only for Christmas.

I've used Pear Pizzazz and Old Olive to stamp the wreath and cut out with the matching framelits.

The flowers are cut out in So Saffron and Pink Pirouette from the same set, as well as the bow.

Sentiment and border from Rose Wonder in Pool Party and mounted on card to match.

Spring Wreath

Another card today using the Wondrous Wreath stamp set and matching framelits.

I saw this on Pinterest and thought the colours were lovely.

The wreath is Pistachio Pudding, other card colours used are:
Wisteria Wonder
So Saffron
Pink Pirouette
Soft Sky
The flowers are punched out with the Boho Blossoms punch.

The sentiment is from the new Butterfly Basics set and I've finished with pearls and some organza ribbon.

A wreath isn't just for Christmas!

I used the Wondrous Wreath bundle lots at Christmas and the good news is that the stamp set & framelits are still available to buy in the new seasonal catalogue.

Of course it is never too early to make a few Christmas cards but how lovely is this for a spring card too?

I've only just thought that this embossing folder is no longer available - I do hope you got one before it was too late!  I'll make another sample with a different folder.

Focusing on the rest though I have used the following:
Blushing Bride card & ink for the base card, bow & flowers
Pear Pizzazz and Mossy Meadow ink for the wreath

Finished with some pearls.

Party make and take

A very successful party last week with 12 lovely ladies, most of whom had a go at this make and take.

I wanted to do something a bit different so chose an easel card and wanted to demo the fab stamp set Wondrous Wreath.  This also comes with matching framelits but I didn't want to scare everyone so we just stamped the image on circles that I had pre-cut for everyone.

(I also took some samples cut using framelits of course as they do look good!).

The base card is pear pizzazz and each card had a different piece of paper to stick on the front from the Trim the Tree DSP pack featuring the colour Garden Green.

Full recipe of goodies:

Card: Whisper White, Pear Pizzazz, Real Red, Garden Green, Red Glimmer Paper

Ink: Pear Pizzazz, Garden Green, Real Red

Punches: Extra-Large Oval, Artisan Label, Ticket Duo Builder

Stamp sets: Wondrous Wreath, That's the Ticket

Filigree Frame embossing folder

Wondrous Wreath Framelits (for the bow)

Circle Framelits

Trim the Tree Designer Series Paper Stack

That's quite a list when you write it out!  All the ladies really liked the card though and a couple of non-stampers were very impressed with their efforts.

This is a side view of the card.

Don't forget you can earn free goodies if your party sales reach £150 or more!!

Christmas Wreath

Back from under a pile of card, paper, ink etc and here is another Christmas card.

This set is a two-step stamping set (well, kind of three step!).

It's a set called Wondrous Wreath which has 9 stamps in and comes in an optional bundle with matching framelits!!

The base stamp has all the leaves on it and I stamped it in Pool Party ink.  The second step has selected leaves on for over-stamping in a darker colour, I used Bermuda Bay.  Because the stamps are photopolymer you can see exactly where you are positioning the stamp for a great result.

There is then a stamp for the berries which I've added in Real Red.

I have cut this out with the framelits and added it with dimensionals to my card - I'll share one I haven't cut out another day.

Remember Weekly Deals are still running so keep an eye on anything on your wish list at a discount!

More Christmas!

It seems a tad wrong posting this card this morning as the weather is lovely and sunny!

Following on from my previous post this is another card using the Wondrous Wreath stamp set and matching framelits but in a different, less traditional colour way.

The base card is Basic Gray and has a layer of Smoky Slate stamped with the Hardwood stamp.

Everything else is using the Wondrous Wreath set and the framelits in the following colours:
Smoky Slate
Lost Lagoon
Blackberry Bliss
Silver Glimmer Paper

Christmas Wreath

And here is the first Christmas Card!

I have very much pinched this idea from the catalogue as a starter.

This is in traditional colours and I shall do another in some other colours to show you how different it can look.

The stamp set is called Wondrous Wreath and is a 9 stamp photopolymer set.
There is a bundle available (for the excellent price of £37.25) which also includes a set of 7 dies for cutting out the wreath and bow and also has the words 'noel' and 'joy' in - a bargain!

Colours used for this card are:
Pear Pizzazz
Cherry Cobbler
Garden Green

Gold Glimmer Paper used for Noel and some gold ribbon to finish (sorry about the bow, I so can't tie these nicely!).
