Posted on July 8, 2023July 7, 2023 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing projects inspired by a picture and colour challenge. I used the Cottage Wreaths stamp set to make my card.

Colours used in my card:

To recreate the Christmas Wreaths card, you will need:

Cherry Cobbler card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Wild Wheat card – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Basic White card – 5” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”
Pretty Peacock card – 2⅝” by ½”
Scrap Sweet Sorbet card

Using the twiggy wreath stamp from the Cottage Wreath stamp set, I stamped on the smaller panel of Basic White card in Pecan Pie ink. I rotated the image and stamped again with Wild Wheat ink. This gave a fuller wreath with more texture.

The holly leaves were added randomly around the wreath using Pretty Peacock ink.

Holly berries were added with Cherry Cobbler ink. At this point I ran the whole panel through the Cut & Emboss Machine with one of the Basics 3D Embossing Folders.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Snow Crystal stamp used to make a one sheet wonder using the baby wipe technique for the Christmas Stampathon

I began by laying 3 damp baby wipes on a plate, one on top of the other. I then added spots of re-inker to fill the centre of the baby white layers to make a sort of ink pad. I used Pool Party, Blueberry Bushel, Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape & Parakeet Party.

The large snow crystal image was then inked up using the makeshift ink pad and stamped down the length of the 1½ A4 sheets of Basic White card. I twisted the image around so that the colour on the stamp was different each time. I then stamped again from side to side.
