Gina K was demonstrating her amazing wreath builder kit at a stamping meet I was at. It had been sold out online and I was giddy as a child when I learned she brought some for sale.
This card was made using only the stamps and template from the Wreath Builder set.
I used the Altenew mini ink pad sets of 4 in the Tropical Forest collection for the Greens and in the Red Cosmos collection for the pink/red colors plus Gina K Designs Black Onyx for the sentiment.
I used Nuvo clear drops for the centers of the large flowers and Wink of Stella glimmer pen on the large flowers. Then I added buttons to the bottom. I used an old designer paper from JoAnns on the card base too.
This card again used only the Wreath Builder stamp set and template. I used Wink of Stella glimmer pen on the thistles and Nuvo crystal drops for embellishing. Then I added buttons.
I used memento inks for the purple and blues along with Gina K Designs Onxy Black for the sentiment.
Buttons are my thing this year but I have noticed that it varies by year. I like ribbons one year then sequins the next, then buttons, etc.
This is the only wreath where I intentionally made the floral design slip inside the sentiment circle. I think I like it done both ways.
I simply cannot put this stamp/template set away. It is addictive. For this card I again used the Altenew mini cube sets in the greens and pinks plus Gina K Designs Onyx Black for the sentiment.
I added Wink of Stella glimmer pen to the large flowers and pearl embellishments.
It really is just a simple wreath with a sentiment but it speaks volumes. I was never "into" wreaths before but I am SOLD now!
This card also only uses the Gina K Designs Wreath Builder stamp set and template. I embellished it with pearls and Wink of Stella glimmer pen for the large flowers and the red hearts.
I intentionally used two different colors on the large flowers and for some reason this blend of colors if very striking to me. I used memento inks for the purple, plus the Altenew mini cubes for the green and the pink/reds plus Gina K Designs Onxy Black Ink for the sentiment.
This card has a more masculine feel from the colors and the deer. Again I used only the Wreath Builder stamps and template, memento ink plus Gina K Designs Black Onxy for the sentiment. I embellished with clear crystal Nuvo drops in the center of each flower and added the deer die cut from Gina Marie Designs.
I decided to leave the banner the deer is on blank so as not to be overwhelming. This card needed space to rest the eyes.
I think this is my favorite wreath card so far. I love the vintage feel to the colors and the pearl accents. I did not use a central circle stamp around the sentiment and even though I love the ones that have it, I think I like this one better with the pale flowers inside.
I used the Altenew mini ink cube set for the greens then memento ink for the pink and purple. I also used Gina K Designs Black Onxy ink for the sentiments.
In addition to the pearl accents I used Wink of Stella glimmer pen on the large flowers.
