Festive Floral Wreath

Hello, friends! Well, we are officially in the countdown to Christmas! I am no where near ready; how about you?

That gorgeous wreath is from the Festive Floral Wreath stamp. I stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with Copics before cutting it out with the coordinating die. I added highlights to the berries with a white gel pen.

For my background I started with a panel of pale green cardstock. I blended it with teal, navy and black inks, fading to the center. I added splatters of water and white paint to the panel and adhered it to a cardbase. I attached my wreath in the center with foam tape.

My sentiment is from the Gilded Holiday Expressions Press-Tacular Plate. Using my BetterPress system, I stamped the sentiment in black before cutting it out with the coordinating die. I adhered my sentiment with thin 3D foam squares to the card. For a finishing touch, I added Matte Silver Opal gems to the centers of the poinsettias and around the sentiment.
