I used the Stampin’ Up! stamp set called Circle of Spring and one of the Expressions Natural Elements to create my card to share today. I love that this new stamp set matches the existing Wonderful Wreath Framelits Dies!
The colors for my card were inspired by Pals Paper Arts #255.
I started by embossing a panel of Sahara Sand card stock with the Elegant Dots Embossing Folder. I trimmed the panel down to the size that I wanted, then adhered it to a panel of Early Espresso card stock with SNAIL and to a Marina Mist card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I cut the wreath center out first with the Wonderful Wreath Framelits Die from a panel of Whisper White card stock, then I stamped the wreath image from the Circle of Spring photopolymer stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink around the wreath center. After stamping the wreath, I cut the exterior of the wreath out with the Wonderful Wreath Framelits Die.
I colored the images with my Mariana Mist, Sahara Sand and Early Espresso Stampin’ Write Markers, then adhered the wreath to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I punched five flowers with the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack Punch from Marina Mist card stock and I adhered them to the wreath with Glue Dots.
I tied a bow with Early Espresso 1/4″ Cotton Ribbon and adhered it to the card front with Glue Dots. I added one of the Expressions Natural Elements to the card front for the sentiment, using rolled up Glue Dots to adhere it.
I adhered a strip of extra Sahara Sand card stock that I’d embossed with the Elegant Dots Embossing Folder to a panel of Whisper White card stock with SNAIL, then I adhered the Whisper White panel to a panel of Sahara Sand card stock on the inside of the card.

Very pretty card Amy! I had not noticed the Elegant Dots folder in the catty until you used it. It is really quite nice and works great with the wreath.
