The November Card Kit is gorgeous and full of beautiful patterned papers, cardstock, fabulous envelopes, an embossing folder, inks, and my new favorite greeting stamp set, Thankful Heart. I paired an embossed white greeting on a woodgrain patterned paper with die cut leaves from more patterns in the kit. The result is a stunning fall wreath sure to make anyone smile!
I trimmed the Echo Park I Love Family woodgrain patterned paper to 4" x 5 1/2" and then die cut a wreath from Dark Chocolate Cardstock using the Chisholm Wreath Die. Using the die as a guide I stamped two greetings from the Thankful Heart Stamp Set on the woodgrain paper using Versamark Ink and heat embossing with white embossing powder. I love how the bright white embossing looks on the dark brown woodgrain. I secured the wreath around the greeting with a couple of glue dots. When I add the leaves in a little bit it will secure the wreath better.
I die cut leaves from more Echo Park I Love Family woodgrain patterned papers using the Stitched Leaf Wreath Die. I added depth and dimension to the patterned paper leaves by partially inking them with Rusty Hinge, Wild Honey, Forest Moss, and Fired Brick Distress Inks. I tucked the leaves into the wreath, attaching with mini glue dots. I die cut the wreath four times from four different patterned papers and only didn't use three leaves. This makes for a really full and pretty wreath!
I attached the patterned paper panel to a card made from the Ivory Cardstock in the kit and finished the design by adding dots of gold glitter with the Stickles included in the kit.
I stamped an additional greeting from the Thankful Heart Stamp Set on the back flap of the Metallic Orange Envelope included in the kit.
