All week long the Stampendous team is hopping with the May Arts team. We have paired up to provide lots of wonderful inspiration. You can go to the
Stampendous Blog or the

Onto my project:
I used the gorgeous
Stampendous Jumbo Cling Amaryllis stamp to create a wreath of flowers. The flowers on the Amaryllis are already in an arch. I stamped them three times on white cardstock using black water resistant ink. I colored them using
STAETDLER Karat Aquarelle watercolor pencils and waterbrush. I cut them out using my detail scissors and cutting some of the petals out. I used the cut out petal for depth and to entwine the beautiful
May Arts Gold Net RA02 throughout my wreath.
The background is stamped using the beautiful
Christmas Background in Ranger Archival Coffee ink and distressed with brown dye ink and a distressing tool. I mounted it on a coordinating brown card base. I added a hint of
Stampendous Crushed Glass Glitter to the center of the flowers.
Don't forget to hop along to see all the wonderful inspiration:

How big is the card because those jumbo stamps are huge! No matter, it is still beautiful. The added ribbon makes me want to hang it somewhere, maybe at work.
The net looks so natural on your wreath. TFS
That must have taken you FOREVER!! It was worth it, though!
