2 Ways to Use the Regal Wreath Registration Press Plate
One way to use a registration press plate is to just letterpress all of the pieces. To do this, take the template and add this into place on the bottom part of the Betterpress System, I then added a little tape to keep this from moving around. I then started with the large wreath piece I added this into place on the template within the black outline- this will line up perfectly. This part was inked with Evergreen Fresh Ink before running through my die cutting machine. I then removed the wreath pate and added in the flower and leaf pieces into place on the template.
The flowers will align with the pink outlines on the stencil and the leaves will align with the blue outlines. These are only half piece for the wreath so once you ink and stamp then once you will need to rearrange them to complete the wreath- but it's just so easy to do when you have the template, that is included in the packaging. The flowers were created using Heart Beat Fresh Ink, the leaves with Swamp Green Fresh Ink and for the sentiment I used Jet Black Fresh Ink.
Another way to use the registration plates are to part foil, or if your feeling shimmery you could even foil them all! I chose to just foil the wreath piece here though. I started again by adding the template into position on the Betterpress base. This time though I skipped the wreath piece and when directly to the flowers and leaves (Heart Beat for the flowers and Mossy Meadow for the leaves), instead of using a white panel I opted for a light gray panel to change up the look a little. Once the flower and leaves were complete I then used the wreath piece to foil! Check out the video below to see how I lined this up.
To finish the cards, I trimmed down the panels and added these to colored card bases created using Crimson and Olive colored cardstock.
