Spring Wreath

Spring Wreath

The Paper Players challenge this week is a Theme Challenge: PP383 "Spring has Sprung!"  My design for this challenge is below.

To re-create my card you will need a White card base (5 x 5") and a piece of Dark Pink Fun Foam (4 3/4 x 4 3/4") adhered with foam tape on the front of the card base. 

The stamped image was on a piece of White card stock (4 x 4").  This was created using a Wreath Template.  I got this idea from Stampin' Sacha's You Tube video tutorial Stampin' Up Perennial Birthday Wreath.  I created my own acetate template with Sacha's directions.  I used this on my stamp positioning tool along with the Stampin' Up Perennial Birthday Stamp Set.  The ink used was Memento Dewdrops (Lilac Posies, Grape Jelly, Elderberry and Bamboos Shoots).  I rubbed some Bamboo Shoot ink and Grape Jelly ink on to an acetate block and with my Aqua pen I filled in the main flowers and leaves of the wreath.  I adhered this to the Fun Foam with strong sticky tape.

I then cut a piece of White card stock (3 1/2 x 3/4") and stamped the sentiment "Today blooms just for you".  I cut a banner end, adhered this to the bottom of the card stock on foam pads.  To complete my project I put three medium sized pearls to the left-hand side of the banner.    I stamped one of the flowers inside the card and onto the envelope too.  This completed my project.

I would love to know what you think about my project, so please leave a comment.  Thank you.

Till next time, keep crafting!
