Hello crafty friends!! Hope you are doing really well. It is such an awesome time of the year for all crafters……Stamptember is here!! A whole month dedicated to stamping!!! There are lots of new products, fun surprises, and so much more. I am so very excited and super grateful to be a part of Simon Says Stamp’s STAMPtember Blog Party!! It’s not a blog hop, just a very big party with lots of awesome bloggers and Instagrammers.  Please check Simon Says Stamps blog page where they will have all the links to these amazing and very talented crafters. Today I am sharing a very fun make using the Berry Wreath Die . Hope you like it. A special surprise at the end of this post. 🙂

I created 2 backgrounds with a mix of distress sprays and oxides. The list of all the colors are at the end of the post. Using the dies I cut out the leaves with SSS Vellum and cut out 2 of the wreaths to layer.

Using distress watercolor paper I covered parts of the panel with Christmas Noel collage paper. After it had tried I did some very simple stitching and after layered cracklepaste in some sections. After it dried I went over the crackle with walnut stain and the TH blender brush and added some black and green paint splatters.

After cutting and layering 2 of the wreaths. I added some shape using the sizzix shaping tool and with collage medium added some rock candy to add a bit of glitter.

I added some crackle paste to a base board frame and a piece of mica tile on the back of the panel. Using my distress watercolor crayon I rubbed it into the crackle paste after it had dried. Added some of the berries around the wreath.

Added some pieces of Christmas Ephemera from Tim Hotz Idea-ology, and the vellum leaves. Added glossy accent to the berries.

To finish of the card I added a velvet ribbon with some idea ology bells. Popped up the panel onto 110lb cardstock base. Finished off with a few more splatters of paint.
