Now, some people see a wreath and immediately think 'holiday'. Me, I wonder how I can use it to fit any season. Behold the autumn wreath! It was actually super easy to make; I popped the wreath into my Misti (so it would always stamp in the same spot) and first inked it up with Hero Arts Butter Bar ink. Then I added dabs of Just Rust and Red Royal ink to create a tri-color wreath.
The golden shimmer? Distress Stain in Tarnished Brass splattered onto the card front with a paintbrush. I filled in the berries with Dandelion Yellow Nuvo Drops and added shimmer berries with Golden Sunset Nuvo Glitter Drops. A little mustard twine from my stash and the 'Happiness is...' sentiment stamped in Hero Arts Cup o' Joe ink and the front was done.
Of course, I had to finish off the inside, too:
It may still be 80 degrees here, but there's nothing like warm cider in the fall. It was so easy to finish off the inside of the card with a smattering of leaves and more gold splatters.
Thanks for stopping by today! Be sure to check out Deb and Celeste's creations, too!
Happy Caffeinated Stamping!
