Materials Needed:

• Build-A-Garden: Flowering Quince & Add-on Die Bundle
• Timeless Sentiments 2 Die Set
• Sweet Expressions Die Set
• Altenew 1/4″ foam tape.
• 7×7 inch card base
• Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock.
• Gold Mirror and Gold Glitter Cardstock.
• Acetate.
• Obsidian Ink
• Ink pads (your choice of colors- I used inks listed in the supplies list)
• Liquid Adhesive
• Die-cutting machine

Tips:

• Play around with different colors and compositions to create your own unique versions of these cards.
• For a more dimensional effect, consider adding foam tape behind the heart die-cut to give your wreath card a bit of height.

Step 1: Create the Heart Wreath Card

Start by taking your 7×7 inch card base. Using the Build-A-Garden: Flowering Quince & Add-on Die Bundle to create two images. 

After die-cutting, join them together to create a wreath-like effect.

Use a large heart die to cut out the center. This will give you the look of a blooming wreath, all framed within the negative space of the heart.

To finish the card, use a large die-cut sentiment. This has to be large enough to reach the inner edges of the die-cut heart shaped window and it will be better if it has a backing outline plate.

With the backing plate die, cut a piece of acetate and cut the sentiment out of gold cardstock.

I used ” Shine Bright” from Timeless Sentiments 2 Die Set .

Use double sided tape at the back of the die-cut sentiment, behind the letters so you can't see it and stick in the center.

The acetate will stabilize the sentiment ( Paper) and also will give a gorgeous floating effect.

Step 2: Make the Topper for Your Second Card

Now, don’t throw away that beautiful negative die-cut heart! You’ll use it to create a clean and simple topper for a second card.

Take a fresh 4- 1/4 x 5-1/2 inch card base and place the die-cut heart from Step 1 on the front of the card.

Since you’re going for a more minimalist design, you can add a die-cut sentiment without much effort.

You now have two beautiful cards from just one bundle!

Bonus Card

This 6×6 card was the first card I made using the Flowering Quince & Add-on Die Bundle. Then, the other two ideas were born.

That's all for today
