Here’s a sneak peek at “Wondrous Wreath”, a two-step photopolymer stamp set with coordinating framelits that will be available August 28. We call it a two-step set, but the wreath itself has three components – the complete set of leaves, stamped first in Pear Pizzazz; the accent leaves, stamped next in Garden Green; and finally, the Real Red holly berries. They are separate stamps but they are clear, so they are easy to line up. There are accessories and greetings in the stamp set, too.
You can see that the framelits for the wreath are very detailed to match the outline of the leaves. There are two greetings in the framelit set, too – Noel and Joy.
I cut two wreaths into pieces to make this garland. I followed the leaves closely when cutting, and I cut some leaves out of the sections on the sides to thin them.
I CASEd the window idea from samples I have seen on Pinterest, and I am not sure who to credit. My window started as a 3 1/4″ square. On the back, I marked a 1/4″ border around the perimeter, and I marked lines for the cross piece allowing space to punch 1 1/4″ squares for the openings. I used my retired 1 1/4″ square punch to make the openings, following the lines on the back.
This wreath will be beautiful for Christmas, but versatile enough for year-round use. I tried a quick autumn version here with Hello Honey, Mossy Meadow, and Cajun Craze. The greeting is from “Good Greetings”, a Hostess set that will be available this fall. The greeting is cut with one of the Project Life framelits, and the leaves are another sneak peek.
