A Fast and Fresh Wreath
By mid January, I get a little hungry for flowers. It's silly, because I have a lot of weeks to wait before any flowers will dare to pop up out of the frozen earth. But still, a girl can let her mind wander to warm days and fragrant flowers, even in the middle of winter.
While I am dreaming of spring gardens, I'll just have to settle for paper gardens!
I made a fun, fast wreath on this card using Fresh Cut Florals from WPlus9 design. I LOVE X3 these stamps! So versatile! To make the wreath, I simple traced a circle lightly with pencil onto the Soft Stone card stock (PTI), then used it as my guide to stamp the flowers and leaves. I used the soft and sweet In Colors from Stampin' Up, then used two different colors of Liquid Pearls to add the centers to the flowers. I gently erased any leftover pencil marks, and voila!
Soft and sweet! An easy one-layer card!
