Circle Monotone Wreath

 

Hello everyone, DT Annalisa here sharing another holiday card featured in Papercraft Essentials Magazine in the UK in October 2021. For this circle card, I used the A5 Winter Wishes Wreath Stamp coordinating dies from Time For Tea Designs. I love the beautiful wreath in this set and decided to use them as the main design element.

Materials:

• Circle Of Love Nesting Dies (these are no longer available but you could use the Simple Circle Dies)
• Beautiful Blender Brush
• Low tack Mint Tape from Scrapbook.com for creating a mask
• Ranger Distress White Heavystock
• Distress Oxide Inks  – Salvaged Patina and Peacock Feathers
• Salvaged Patina Distress Spray stain
• Heat tool and anti-static powder tool
• Brutus Monroe Sterling embossing powder
• VersaMark by Tsukineko embossing ink
• Stickles Stardust and Ranger Inkssentials Enamel Accents White
• Art Glitter liquid glue
• Stamping platform - MISIT from My Sweet Petunia

Instructions:

1. Dust cardstock with an anti-static powder tool, stamp the large wreath in embossing ink and cover it with white embossing powder and heat set.
2. Use blender brushes to Distress Oxides and die-cut wreath with the coordinating die.
3. Die cut a 5 ¼ diameter circle from white cardstock and dust with an anti-static powder tool. Use a stamping platform to stamp ‘warm winter wishes’ in embossing ink, cover with silver embossing powder and heat set.
4. Use low tack tape to protect the sentiment and add a splatter of distress ink spray stain.
5. Adhere wreath around the sentiment using liquid glue and add some Stickles and white accents.
6. Create a card base by partial die cutting using the same circle die used to make the front panel.
7. Adhere the decorated front panel to the card base with liquid glue.

TIP:  for a bolder/more intense splatter use a distress ink rather than an Oxide, even better use a spray stain!
