Wreath in Good Taste
I am enjoying using the pressed wood accents called In Good Taste Elements. In this card I used some of them to make a wreath.
Card Base: Cut Bumble Bee 8 ½ X 11 paper in half width wise. You now have two pieces 8 ½ X 5 ½ . Fold one of the pieces in half lengthwise for your card front. The card front now measures 4 ¼ X 5 ½.
Card Mat: Cut Very Vanilla paper 4 X 5 1/4
Card Front: Cut wood grain print In Color Designer Series paper 3 7/8 X 5 ⅛. (The piece you have left will work to cover envelope flap - see at end of card instructions).
Attach card front to vanilla card base.
Cut 4 inches of open weave ribbon in the Forever Greenery Trim Combo pack. Place gold hoop in center of ribbon, fold ribbon in half and attach ends to back of vanilla card mat at top center of card mat.
Attach card front with mat to card base.
Stamp sentiment with Bumblebee ink on whisper white paper and die cut with larger circle in Tasteful labels dies.
Lay hoop on card so ribbon is straight and attach stamped circle inside hoop.
Attach wood pressed leaf pieces with glue dots on hoop and card front (this keeps hoop in place).
That’s it; you have finished your card front. Wasn’t that easy? For the inside of your card, cut a piece of Very Vanilla 4 X 5 ¼. Stamp a sentiment or write a note before attaching this piece inside your card.
