Linocut Floral Wreath Birthday Card

For this birthday card I used some of the Linocut Flower stamps to create a floral wreath using my favourite rainbow colours.
Die cut a topper from Clarity stencil card using the 6” nested square die and a mat from black card using the 6.25” nested square picot die.
Stamp the smallest flower stem from the Linocut Flowers set onto the topper four times in Nocturne Versafine Clair ink using a stamp platform and rotating the topper.
Add four more of the stems in the same way to complete the ‘wreath’.
Add the coordinating flower head stamp to each stem in Festive Berries, Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed and Mowed Lawn Distress inks.
Finish the flower heads in Salty Ocean, Chipped Sapphire, Wilted Violet and Picked Raspberry Distress inks.
Add the smallest leaf set to the outside of the wreath in the same colours.
Add the ‘If I had a single flower’ poem from the Happiness is a Butterfly poetry set into the centre of the wreath in Nocturne Versafine Clair ink.
Mat up the topper and add it to the front of a 7” x 7” white card blank.
To finish, add two of the Christmas & Celebrations word sticker stamps in Nocturne Versafine Clair ink.
