I used the Wondrous Wreath and Holiday Home stamp sets from Stampin’ Up! to create my card to share today.

My card design was inspired by Retrosketches #137.

The colors for my card were inspired by The Paper Players #218.

I started by embossing a panel of Whisper White card card stock with the On Point Embossing Folder.  I adhered the embossed panel to a panel of Brushed Gold card stock, then to a Whisper White card base with SNAIL.

I stamped the sentiment from the Holiday Home Photopolymer stamp set in VersaMark Ink on a Whisper White panel, sprinkled it with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it.  I trimmed the edges of a panel of Brushed Gold card stock with the Tiny Wave Stampin’ Trimmer Rotary Cutting Blade, then I adhered the stamped panel to it.  I punched the corners with the corner rounder on the Envelope Punch Board and set the panel aside while I worked on the wreath.

I stamped the full wreath image from the Wondrous Wreath photopolymer stamp set in VersaMark Ink on a panel of Brushed Gold Card Stock, sprinkled it with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it.  I let the image cool down, then stamped the partial wreath image in VersaMark Ink over the first image, sprinkled it with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it.  I followed the same process for the berries, only I used Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Emboss Powder.

I cut the wreath image out with the Wonderful Wreath Framelits Dies and I placed it where I wanted it on the White panel.  I used a pencil to trace around the inside of the wreath and I used the center wreath die to cut the center out of the panel.

I adhered a panel of Cherry Cobbler card stock to the back of the Brushed Gold/Whisper White panel, then adhered the layered panel to the card front with SNAIL.  I adhered the wreath image to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals, then cut the Joy sentiment with the Wonderful Wreath Framelits Die (don’t forget to add a piece of wax paper between your die and card stock) from Gold Foil Sheets and adhered that to the wreath with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the sentiment and flower images from the Wondrous Wreath stamp set in VersaMark Ink on a Whisper White panel, sprinkled them with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed them, then adhered the panel to the inside of the card.
