Today we are featuring the New 
 Holiday Wreath Builder Stamp Set

 First up is: 
New Holiday Wreath Builder Set By: Gina K. Designs 
Check out all those wonderful images in this set! <3 
This is a fun set to create some awesome Christmas Cards or Winter cards along with cards for Hanukkah! :) 
 Here are a few I came up with! ๐Ÿ˜Š
On the Poinsettias I used two different colors. 
Coral Reef and Red Velvet for the smaller flower.
I also cut apart the pine sprigs with the poinsettia.
 I don't recommend you do that, but I just couldn't help myself!
 It was a tedious job since I didn't want to ruin my images! But the little poinsettia fit so nice in the larger one! 
I also added a Gelly Roll pen in a gold glitter to the pinecones,
and the greeting!

This is Skeleton Leaves By: Gina K.  


Here are my cards featuring this set!
This one I used my Wreath Builder Template and stamps the leaves in the four corners using Versa Mark and heat embossed with Fine Detail Embossing Powder. Then sponged the colors over it.
 Wiped off the leaves to pick up excess ink and then used the Amalgam Ink on velum for the greeting!

Premium Dye Ink - Faded Brick, Tomato Soup, Sweet Mango, Prickly Pear,

Versa Mark, Velum, Black Bling


I am having fun with this set.
 I wanted to do a soft background, so I chose Sandy Beach and stamped the image all over and then Stamped the one leaf in Warm Cocoa and added a 
copic marker W1 & W3 for a little shadow.
