A very special friend of mine is celebrating her birthday early next week and a while ago, she spent some time playing around with my Wreath Builder stamp set along with a stamp press. Now, she is not a crafter - far from it - but she LOVED the fact that she was able to create a beautiful card without much skill or effort. She went home and showed her card to everyone she knew - she was SO proud of what she had created! It was awesome :)
So, knowing how much she loved working with that set, I decided to use it to create her birthday card. After creating a 4 inch wreath, I simply cut mine in half and placed some patterned paper between the two halves along with some shimmer trim. I stamped one of the sentiments from the original Wreath Builder stamp set in an oval frame using the rock and roll technique to get two colours for the image and then added a few embellishments. Such a simple card with great impact.
I KNOW she will love this - mainly because she will recognize how it was created!
