'Wishing You Well'

I need to create a card last night for my blog post today.  I've have been wanting to use this wreath stamp.  I had a bunch of scrap pieces laying on my table & decided to play & see what I could come up with.  I like it alot!!

Look closely at the wreath.  I repeatedly stamped the wreath over & over in almost the same spot to make it fuller. 

I really like this DSP!  The Night of Navy accent line in it is really pretty!  So I added the Night of Navy bow & words to the wreath too, to pull out some more of the Night of Navy. 

stamp sets:  'Wishing You Well' & 'Itty Bitty Greetings'
card stock:

• Old Olive-5 1/2 x 8 1/2- score at 4 1/4"- fold in half for card base; 3x3"; 5 1/2 x 1"
• Night of Navy- 4x4"; 3 1/4 x 3 1/4"; 5 1/2 x 1/2"
• Whisper White- 2 3/4 x 3 3/4- to stamp wreath onto; 4 x 5 1/4- for inside of card' 2" strip to stamp bow onto & fussy cut out with Paper Snips; 1/2 x 1 1/4"- stamp words onto & flag end with your Paper Snips

designer paper:  

• Under the Mistletoe DSP- 3 3/4 x 3 3/4"

inks:  Old Olive & Night of Navy
other:  Basic Pearls, Paper Snips, Dimensionals, Glue Dots,  Champagne Shimmer Paint, rubbing alcohol

Can you see the shimmer that I added to the card?  

How did I do it?

• Stampin' Spritzer 
• Champagne Shimmer Paint- 5-8 drops (approx. 1/8 teaspoon)
• Fill Spritzer about 85%-90% full of Rubbing Alcohol- leaving room so that you can shake & mix the Shimmer Paint, as it settles to the bottom.
• Hold the Spritzer about 6-8" away from your card & spray!
• Shake it up each time before you use it. 
• If you have any questions- comment here & I'll answer your questions!

Yesterday was a busy day with kids & stamping!  I burnt the midnight oil cutting card stock.

 

This morning I'm up early to work on cutting card stock before the kids get here!  Tonight I have a group of ladies coming to stamp with me!  

 

Gotta run.....

I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday!!
Happy Stamping!
