A Stamped Floral Wreath

Hi all - busy Sunday but I managed to finish a card for some challenges:



Supplies: Paper - Poptone Blue Raspberry;
Paper Studio orange A2 card; Neenah white;
Spellbinders Betterpress porcelain; dotted by unk
Stamps with Dies - Pinkfresh Studio English Garden (retired)
Dies - Folk Edge Rectangles (retired)
Press Plate w/dies - Spellbinders A Little Message Sentiments
Other - Copic Markers; foam tape;
Park Lane gems

I die cut 2 layers of the PFS Folk Edge Rectangles set (love!) & adhered to an A2 card. I stamped and die cut the PFS English Garden image which results in many pieces. I colored them with Copics (G00,02,05,09/Y08,18/YR09,16) and arranged the wreath along with one flower cluster, the leafy stem, & butterfly atop. Added a pressed sentiment and some gems - done! The orange paper with white dots came wrapped around as packaging when I ordered some Birch Press woodgrain paper - I always save it; comes in handy!!

Above I tried my hand at a more artful photo with some supplies, as many people do. What do you think? Here's a view from closer up:


It's been a while, so I decided to make this card for The Flower Challenge #95 where we're to include a stamped flower. It also works for the September Pinkfresh Studio Challenge where they're doing Leaves & Wreaths. Also for the We Love Stamping September Challenge to hand color an image & Inkspirational #324 where they're using markers. Thanks for the fun challenges!!

That's it for today - thanks for stopping by!
