Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where we are working with a sketch challenge. I have used the Cottage Wreaths stamp set to create my card.
Colours used in this project are:
To recreate the country wreaths card, you will need:
Soft Succulent card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Sweet Sorbet card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White card – 3½” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Basic White, Sweet Sorbet, Soft Succulent and 2022 – 2024 In Color dsp.
I ran the smaller panel of Basic White card through the Cut & Emboss Machine with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder. This was then glued to the Sweet Sorbet panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I used the same glue to adhere the piece to the Soft Succulent card base.

I flagged the ends of 2 scrap strips of 2022 – 2024 In Color dsp and added them to the card front with liquid glue. I had flagged one end with Scissors.

A stitched circle was die cut from the square of Basic White card using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I used the double leafy sprig to stamp around the edge of the circle with Soft Succulent ink. I used liquid glue to add the circle to the card front.

The leafy wreath was stamped in Evening Evergreen ink onto scrap Basic White card, added berries with Sweet Sorbet ink and used the Country Wreath Dies to cut out the wreath, this was added to the die cut circle on Dimensionals. A bow, die cut from the scrap Sweet Sorbet card was added to the wreath.

The sentiment was stamped in Evening Evergreen ink onto a scrap of Soft Succulent card, trimmed it down and added it to the card front.
