Julie P’s Color Hues combo is so inspiring this time around. I love the Olive and Mustard combination and was able to put another NBUS stencil to work.
Altenew’s Wonderful Wreath has been sitting in the NBUS box for far too long. It’s a very easy stencil to use, and I used Papertrey Ink’s Ripe Avocado for one layer, and after rotating the stencil a bit added a second layer of leaves with Gina K’s Asparagus ink–two of my favorite greens. The mustard berries were hard to see even when I used a heavy had with Concord and 9th’s Honeycomb ink so I added some Nuvo Crystal Glaze to each berry for a bit of dimension.
The main panel was die cut with Hero Art’s Rounded Rectangles (before adding the Nuvo glaze), and the sentiment is from Pinkfresh Studio’s Betterpress Plate, Favorite Things Sentiments, foiled in gold.
These are such pretty fall colors, and I hope you’ll be inspired to join us in the Color Hues Gallery. There’s lots of inspiration there so take a look!
Pretty card. The glaze ups the elegance of the simple wreath.
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL card Karen! Your stenciled wreath uses two of my favorite ink colors too, and the mustard colored berries are the perfect addition! Definitely a Fall feel to this beauty…LOVE it!! Hugs. :0) P.S. I loved all your trip photos…sounds like it was the trip of a lifetime!! :0)
Karen what a beautiful card, your wreath is so lovely in the CH colours the the gold sentiment so perfectly die cut I. The centre is fabulous!
A wreath was such a nice idea with this color combo, Karen. I love that you offset it to one side and added the Nuvo for some dimension. The rounded corners is another nice touch. Wonderful card for any occasion.
Quite possibly my favorite wreath stencil because of the color combos and I love yours!
A perfect take on the colours Karen. Love the way you’ve off set the wreath and the Nuvo drops are a great addition. 🙂
This is an elegant card design, Karen! I love the way you have used the colors for your NBUS wreath and I love the rounded corners and beautiful sediment! If you’d like to add it to the NBUS gallery, I send my thanks in advance!❤️Hugs, Darnell
Lovely! It reminds me of an Olympic head garland from the London 2012 games. The sentiment is a bit of a tear-jerker. :o)
Your card is so elegant in its simplicity, Karen! The wreath was a genius way to use these lovely fall colors. A beautiful card with a lovely sentiment!
Your wreath is just beautiful Karen! I love the rounded corners, the sparkle and that fabulous sentiment. It’s always a win when we dig into our NBUS stashes!
Karen, you’ve transformed this wonderful wreath into a gorgeous one! Great choice of image for this combination.
