Flourishes Friday - Double Wreath
Posted by Becca Feeken on Friday, October 31st, 2008
This card again shows the circular embossing technique using a Cuttlebug folder . . . look familiar? This was actually the first circle I cut, but since the pattern was a little more subtle in the foil, I set the sample aside and made another earlier week. Coming back around to this beautiful foil, I thought it would look marvelous with my favorite set - Poinsettia and Boxwood, which is one of the newly released sets from Flourishes for October. I selected the larger of two wreaths in the set and chose to stack the wreaths. It adds a splash of white in the center of the card and balances things out a bit. For the sentiment I went back to the Holiday Greetings set from Flourishes.
Supplies:
Stamps: Flourishes - Poinsettia and Boxwood, Holiday Greetings
Paper: Green Foil, Gold Foil, 140lb Watercolor,
Ink: Versamark, Adirondack Pesto
Accessories: Red Crystals, Brads, Sizzlit Architectural Accents, Ribbon, Brads, Gold Embossing Powder.
Thanks so much for stopping by! I’ve enjoyed your company!!
