Hello! We are going to play with some non-traditional holiday colors today, using one of the brand new sets released today by Altenew.
October 2018 Release is filled with fun holiday and fall themed stamps and dies, and there are other non-holiday products worth checking out! In today’s project, I wanted to create a fun wreath card using the Peaceful Wreath stamp set.
Let’s start with the video tutorial where I explain all the details and walk you through step by step.
Since this stamp set has a half wreath image, just stamping randomly to create a full wreath can be tricky. So I shared a quick tip on how you can get a perfectly aligned full wreath using the stamp set and die set. Make sure to watch the video above!
I also went outside of the box with the color choices for this card. Instead of the normal green/red shades for the wreath, I chose gray and blue shades. What do you think?
For the sentiment, I utilized the coordinating die set again, along with some colored cardstock and a thin adhesive to create a dimensional die cut sentiment.
I added some white dots throughout the wreath for added interest and dimensions. Also did a quick slattering using a shimmer spray to add a fun background on the card panel while keeping the whole card still simple and clean.
