TESC154 Easter Wreath
March 9th, 2012
Happy Friday! It’s time for another Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge. This is a very fun and super versatile sketch. I hope you’ll play along with us as there is a prize up for grabs.
It’s funny – I really have no idea why I made an Easter card, when I went in my stamp room with the intention of creating a birthday card! The Petite Storage Case that holds some of my TE wreath stamp sets was on the floor and the next thing you know I had an Easter card started. LOL!
I started with some Pretty in Pink cardstock. I embossed a 4 x 5.25″ panel with the TE Musical Swirls Impressions Plate and then inked it with white craft ink. Then I added the patterned paper strip and the sentiment strip before cutting the window with a circle die.
The Spring Wreath was colored with Copics and then I added Glossy Accents. It was cut out with the Seasonal Wreath Die and then popped up on foam squares. There is part of a white doily behind the wreath. Embellishments include Viva Decor Pearl Pen in Ice White, Baker’s Twine in 3 colors, Pebbles Button Candy Dots.
Now let’s see what the rest of the Sketch Crew has in store today. I do hope you’ll come play along with us! Get all the deets on Taylor’s blog.

Jami this is just beautiful. I love how you made a negative cut. It makes everything stand out. I had to do a double take at your pearls. They are so perfect I thought they were the stick on kind, not the Viva pearls. I have to break mine out now!!!

Oooh, it’s pretty, Jami! Love the sketch and it’s perfect for the wreath. I like the way you did the cut out area. All those details with the pearls and doily and button candy and Easter twine are just darling! I can’t believe how perfect your pearls came out. I can never do that with the Ranger Liquid Pearls. Must check out that Pearl Pen!
