There are so many pretty cards you can make with this die-cut wreath including a card like this Easter Bunny Wreath Easter Card. You can use this wreath and the other design that comes in the set as well to make all kinds of cards for many occasions. I love adding the Easter bunny and his basket of eggs to the wreath!
The die-cut wreath is made with the Wreath Builder Dies. I die cut two wreaths, one out of Pear Pizzazz and one out of Soft Sea Foam for a lighter color. You can use just one wreath but I think two look more interesting. Just glue one on top of the other, however you would like to place it, and then adhere to the card front.
The card base is Pear Pizzazz with a layer of Shimmery White Cardstock. I thought the background needed a little something, so I embossed it with the Ornate 3D Floral Embossing Folder. I think it adds a nice background without being too much.
The Easter bunny and basket, from the Springtime Joy Stamp Set, are stamped on Shimmery White with Memento Ink and colored in with Stampin’ Blends. I then cut out each by hand. To get your scissors inside the handle of the basket, you can punch a hole or maybe a couple of holes carefully which might work better than trying to stab the point of your scissors into the cardstock! I just used Multipurpose Liquid Glue for everything, although you could pop some things up with Stampin’ Dimensionals if you wanted to.
I also added a bow with the Daffodil Delight 1/4″ Ruched Ribbon and adhered it with Mini Glue Dots. There is also a die for a bow to hang on the wreath, but I preferred a real bow. For the greeting, I stamped one in the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set and made a tiny tag out of it to tie on behind the bow. You can even cheat and add Glue Dots behind a little tag like this to hold it in exactly the position you want it or even behind ribbon tails or bow loops to keep them where you want them!
Here is another card I made for fall die-cutting one each of both the wreath designs on one card!
Easter is in two weeks from yesterday so it’s time to make Easter and Spring cards if you want to send them.
