Fall Wreath for PPA219

I wish this challenge had come a couple weeks ago.  I had some good cards I made with these colors or very similar to these colors.  But when I put my mind to it I designed a whole new card for this challenge.  I still had left over cardstock cut from my open house so it was easy to decide which color cardstock would go where.  You can view my other card here.

For the background I used the direct to paper technique.  Meaning I swiped my stamp pad across the paper to get the design I wanted.

I bet you are wondering how I got the Give Thanks banner.  Well wonder no more!

The photopolymer stamps are so adjustable.  I just bent this one to the shape I wanted.  

Then I used 2 different sizes of the Circle Framelits Die.  Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of that part of the process.  I used the largest and then the second largest die.  My tip would be cut the smaller circle first, stamp the sentiment above the cut, and then cut the larger circle.

See it is a straight stamp.

Happy Stamping!
