A couple months ago, Papertrey Ink reached out and asked if I would like t one a guest designer for an upcoming release and I felt so honored! I received some of their September release filled with Christmas and holiday goodies, including some really great nested dies. I used a few of the new products to create a Christmas wreath card using non-traditional colors to share in celebration of the new release. I'm also hopping along with the design team over on Instagram, so make sure you check that out, too!

I started with creating my wreath by stamping the different branches and flower buds from All Around Christmas using my Sizzix Stamp and Spin and different colored inks. Next I hot foiled the Christmas Laurel Hot Foil Plate in the center with gold foil and die cut it with the largest of the North Pole Mail: Postage Stamp Frame Post Card Dies. My sentiment is also from All Around Christmas Stamps which I embossed in gold on brown cardstock and used the coordinating die to cut it out.
Next I die a lot of die cutting using the Into the Blooms: Swag Dies - pink pine leaves, teal leaves and a bronze gold bow. I added some Distress Ink to the leaves and layered them onto the wreath. When my card was assembled, I added a few Pops of Color just to add in a little more interest to the card. I'm so excited to create a few more projects with this new release over the next month and I hope you are too!
