*Wreath Builder Galentines Day*
Hello everyone! Nancy here this morning with a great card…. I pulled out my Gina K Wreath Builder and some colourful inks and had a little fun creating another card with a Galentine’s Day theme to go along with the month long challenge.
To make this card, I started with a 5 1/4″ square piece of white cardstock and placed it in my Misti with the larger of the two Gina K Wreath Builder templates. For one of the turns in the Wreath Builder, I had to tuck one corner through the hinges to make it all work. I knew I wanted my wreath more in the corner so I placed my first stamp off-centre, pretty close to the one edge of the square of white cardstock. I just kept adding layers and colours until I was happy with the outcome.
Once it was all stamped up, I cut down the panel to 3 7/8″ to 5 1/8″, keeping the wreath off centre. I was inspired by a card I saw by Jennifer McGuire several months ago so my placement and colours are similar to what she did…
The inks I used are ones I had on hand but you can certainly find some great inks at Scrap ‘n Stamp… like these Colorbox Inks or some of the new GinaK inks or the inks by Lawn Fawn (you can get some great colour groupings in the mini pads!). While you can use the Tim Holtz inks for stamping I do find that they are better for ink blending than stamping.
