Yellow Rose Wreath

Hi everyone - hope you're enjoying the weekend! I spotted a beautiful yellow roses card by my friend Joanne (Ambrosia and Iron) yesterday and was inspired to get out my Altenew Garden Picks die set. These roses are such fun to cut and assemble! I decided to add them to a wreath and finished my card this morning.


Supplies: Paper - Authentique Promise & Jubilee 6x6 collection;
Park Lane A2 card; Paper Studio Paint Shop; scrap of brown & kraft
Dies - Altenew Garden Picks;
A Jillian Vance Design Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop;
My Favorite Things Sunflower Wreath;
Memory Box Floral Window (magazine freebie)
Other - Wplus9 Autumn Splendor enamel dots

I die cut two wreaths and three white flowers from the same MFT set. Arranged them with the Altenew roses & leaves atop a pale yellow gingham circle so it would stand out from the basketweave background. Decided to add a band of orange checked paper behind the circle. A sentiment from a MB die set (free in issue 97 of Die Cutting Essentials magazine) finished it off.

Joanne set the challenge Everything's Coming Up Roses at Daring Card Makers for this week and I wanted to play along. I've not played at that challenge before, despite being inspired many times by Joanne's creations on the DT. Thought it was past time that I joined in! Thanks to Joanne & the Daring Card Makers for the fun!!

My friend Betty (created by bjk) is the featured designer for the current TIC TAC TOE Challenge 212 and my card works for that too - center horizontal line Wreath/Free/Die Cut. 


Thanks for stopping by! Happy crafting!!

  4. So pretty with wonderful texture and dimension. Before reading your post, I thought you were working the right column (yellow, die cuts) of the TTTC.😂
