These A2 size cards feature the Tidings All Around Stamp Set and the coordinating All Around Wreath Dies from Stampin' Up!

For this first card I began by cutting 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" square of Whisper White CS, and then stamped it with the 3 branch stamp from the stamp set using Shaded Spruce Ink- by placing the stamp on my Stamparatus and then rotating the mat to form the wreath shape.

Next I stamped the dot cluster from the stamp set as shown and the Merry Christmas sentiment from the Perfectly Plaid Stamp Set in Real Red Ink.

I popped up the mat using Dimensionals onto a top mat cut from a piece of the Under The Mistletoe DSP set, and added a couple strips of narrow red ribbon from my stash.

I attached the top mat to a bottom mat of Shaded Spruce CS, and then to a White Card Base using Tape Runner.

Lastly I added several Frosted Epoxy Droplets which I colored with Real Red Stampin' Blends.


For this next card I stamped the wreath from the Tidings All Around Stamp Set using Emerald Envy ink on a scrap piece of Emerald Envy CS, and die cut it using the coordinating die from the All Around Wreath Dies. 

I cut an appropriately sized circle of Whisper White CS and used Tape Runner to attach it to the back of the Wreath.  I cut some sprigs of Gold and Green Foil Paper using the dies from the same set and used Tape Runner to attach them as shown.

The sentiment is from this same stamp set.

I popped up the wreath using Dimensionals onto a top mat of Wrapped in Plaid DSP.  And attached the piece to a bottom mat of Emerald Envy CS.  And then to a White Card Base.

I added a gold bow to the wreath on the completed card.




This card is very similar to the card above.

The top mat is from the Joyous Noel DSP set.

The deer was cut from Gold Foil Paper using the Detailed Deer Thinlits.

The sprigs on the wreath and the bottom mat were cut from Shaded Spruce CS.

The sentiment is from the Perfectly Plaid Stamp Set and was stamped with Shaded Spruce Ink.






For these next 2 cards I added a second layer under the wreath.  It was cut from Shaded Spruce CS using the second die from the All Around Wreath Dies. I cut several of them, then cut them into sections, and  I attached them to the back side of the top wreath using Tape Runner.

Both of these cards were embellished with either Enamel Shapes or colored Frosted Epoxy Droplets and Bows. I wrapped some green twine around the green card.
