I showed some cards made with “Wondrous Wreath” before – click here to see them – but until now I have only used two different colors for the leaves. A fall wreath really benefits from more color, so I added a third leaf color here. I got this idea from Carol Lovenstein’s card on Pinterest, and she shared the method she learned at Convention.
To understand, you really need to see the different components that make up the “Wondrous Wreath” stamp set. They are shown below. This is a photopolymer set, so the stamps are completely clear for easy placement.
Previously, I used one color on each of the stamps that make up the wreath. This time, however, I used Crushed Curry to ink the stamp with the most leaves. Before stamping, I used a sponge dauber to pick up Cajun Craze from my ink pad, and I tapped it onto the inked stamp. It only takes a little ink – tap it on lightly, and then stamp. I followed this with Old Olive on the overlay stamp (the one with less leaves) and Blackberry Bliss on the berries.

By the way, did anyone notice who photobombed my wreath card picture? Lol! There was a hideous green toy in the background of my shot, so I asked him to “Get toy”, and he brought it over to play. 🙂
Stampin’ Up! also announced a new photopolyment set yesterday, “You’re Wonderful”. Details are shown below.
