But now, let's dive into today's project!
I really loved this wreath die, it's perfect for the season! I also need to thank a friend of mine, Laura, which inspired me to create a wreath design on a door front!
I loved the idea so much that I couldn't resist to create a similar one on this card. I firstly started die cutting a lot of sunflower pieces from the Sunflower Wreath Die-namics a: I created more than I used in my card but I wanted to have a bunch ready for future too. I've used Butterscotch and Lemon Drop Cardstock for the yellow parts, while the brown is made from Milk Chocolate. I also die cut two circular wreath and some greenery from Jalapeno and Prickly Pear Cardstock.
I then moved into my bakcground, which is really simple to make: I die cut the panel using the largest A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX die and I drew 4 rectangles, as they were the front door decorations. I've used my T-ruler t create all the lines, you can do whatever decoration you want but I kept mine really simple. I also added a small touch of Copic in the recessed parts, which are shaded (I've used T3 and T1).
I then assembled everything, adding a lot of layers of flowers and greenery. I also cut the Blessed Die-namics to use as my sentiment, and I completed it with a white heat embossed phrase from Bitty Thanks and Gratitude.
To complete the card, I matted my "front door" with a light grey panel and I also added some yellow gems, that really give a cool touch.
And that's all for today!
