Congrats to Karen, the newest Featured Stamper! She has a lovely little gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I liked the wreath on the brick wall, so I kept that. But I used different stamps, dies & colors & used a stencil for my brick instead of an embossing folder.
On my bg, I sponged Brilliance gold & lightning black inks thru the brick wall stencil. While the stencil was still in place, I stamped the splatter bg using the same inks to give the bricks a little texture. IRL, itâs very gold & shimmery! The wreath was stamped, colored & I used my out of the box die cutting technique & a circle die to cut it. Large script greeting fit perfectly inside the wreath & I stamped it in black first, then again in the lightning black so it has a nice shimmer, too. A gold circle layer was added & done!
Thanks so much for looking. Copic colors & product links are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Julie, I love this. The wreath is beautiufl and how perfect the sentiment fits. Your brick background is amazing. I'll bet it does shimmer IRL.
Gorgeousness!
