SSS Ornament Wreath

Posted on by

Hello crafty friends, I hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Today I want to share with you a couple Christmas cards I’ve made using SSS Create Joy Ornament Wreath Dies.
SSS-Ornament-WreathThese brand-new wreath dies are so versatile and inspirational!! We can create a lot of different styles of cards with them.

YoonsunHur-20151019-SSS-CreateJoy01-600pxFor my first card, I used Ring Wreath Die. For my sparkly ring wreath, I 1) Die cut Ring Wreath from A2 size white paper panel, then adhered the sticky paper to the back of the negative die-cut panel. 3) Inlaid the positive ring wreath die cut securely in place to the negative die-cut panel. 4) filled in all the little circles with several colours of glitter powders.

YoonsunHur-20151019-SSS-CreateJoy03-600pxFor my second card, it was no different to the way I made it the first card. But this time, I used Ornament Wreath Die and several colours of card stocks instead of glitter powders.

YoonsunHur-20151016-SSS-CreateJoy-BHop-A01-600pxFor my first card, I made a watercolour Christmas wreath card. SSS For To Us stamp set, It led me straight into the watercolour project!

To create my own Christmas wreath, I 1) Traced the circle on watercolour paper panel with watercolor pencil. 2) Stamped the leaves repeatedly along the circle line with Bundled Sage Distress ink, then brushed them using waterbrush. 3) Coloured the wreath with several colours of Distress markers using waterbrush, then added ink splatters.

To create the card, I 1) Stamped Lattice Grid Background on watercolour paper panel using embossing ink, heat embossed with white embossing powder. 2) Coloured on the stamped panel with Festive Berries Distress ink using a wet paintbrush. 3) Stamped the chef bear, Bear Necessities stamp set, on watercolour paper using black pigment ink, then coloured them with Distress markers and then die cut them with the matching dies. 4) Die cut Ornament Wreath from white card stock (3 times) and then affixed them together using find tip glue pen -I made ornament wreath die cut thicker. 5) Die cut Ring Wreath out of scrapes of SSS coloured card stock -I just used the small circle die cuts. 6) Mounted all elements as shown to the kraft card base using dimensional foam tape. 7) Embellished with a few PPP clear droplets and gold sequins.

For my own rainbow background, I 1) Stamped Doodle Background on watercolour paper panel using embossing ink, heat embossed with white embossing powder. 2) Coloured the stamped panel with (from top to bottom) Fired Brick, Wild Honey, Crushed Olive, Peacock Feathers, and Faded Jeans Distress inks using a wet paintbrush.

Hello crafty friends!
Today I want to share with you a happy holiday card I’ve made using Merry Christmas Centerpieces Die-namics.
PrintMy Favorite Things is celebrating the joys of a Handcrafted Holiday! And today’s question is “What’s your best advice for a stress-free holiday?” My answer? As a handmade card maker, it’ll have to be: to make a card fast and easy – totally stress-free!!

Here is what I came up with:
YoonsunHur-20151013-MFT-Promo-B01As promised, I made simple and easy holiday card! First I 1) Die cut A2 size stitched rectangle from white card stock using Blueprints 25 Die-namics. 2) Die cut 4 confetti stripes (twice) from white paper panel using Merry Christmas Centerpieces Die-namics, then tied the bottom part of the die cut panel with a natural twine. 2) Adhered Cherry Crisp card stock on white card base, then mounted the die cut panel using dimensional foam tape. 3) Stamped “Christmas” from the Hand Lettered Holiday stamp set on white paper using Black Licorice hybrid ink, fussy cut and then affixed it on die cut panel to finish it off.
