Wreath2stamp - The Stamps of Life

Hello everyone!  I am so happy to be guest designing for The Stamps of Life this month.  For those of you that don't know, it was because of The Stamps of Life that I first got into card making a few years ago.  I had stumbled across their gorgeous Candles4birthday Stamp Set while looking for ideas for my sister-in-law's first baby shower.  I had never even seen a set of clear stamps prior to that and from that moment on, I was hooked!


 I have a fun card to share with you today featuring the new and gorgeous wreath2stamp set.  I absolutely love this wreath!

This set is just so beautiful and versatile.  To start, I first stamped this wreath twice in two separate colors.  Once with Color Box Blue Jay Ink and the second wreath with Color Box Seaglass Ink.  I then used the coordinating die set to cut them out.


I then used a sheet of Gingersnap Card Stock and trimmed it to 5.5" x 3.75".  I used a Circle Die to cut a hole in the top center of the card and then added a piece of fencing into the center of the circle from the Sizzix Flowers & Fence Stamps & Dies.  I adhered this entire panel to a sheet of patterned paper from the Big Hugs Patterned Paper Pad.


I then colored some birds from the Birdcage2stamp Set with Copic Markers (BG0000, BG000, BG11, BG45, BG18).  I used the coordinating dies to cut them out.  For my sentiment, I cut a strip of Powdered Sugar Card Stock and stamped my sentiment with Seaglass Ink.


I added my wreaths in separate layers.  I glued the lighter one to the outer edge of the circle window on my card panel.  I then added a few leaves that I cut using the Wreath2stamp Die Set from both Blue Jay and Seaglass Card Stock and added my top wreath with some 3D Foam Adhesive to give it more dimension.  


I then diecut some white flowers using the same wreath die set and used some more foam adhesive squares to add them to my top wreath.  To finish my card, I then added a drop of Sea Breeze Nuvo Jewel Drops to the center of each flower.
