Welcome back to Sketch Saturday for another great sketch to try your hand at this week. Bugaboo Stamps is our sponsor.This sweet rustic wreath is a stamp and matching die from Papertrey Ink. I spent some time puttering around lining the stamp up with the die, wishing I had paid attention a little more in my geometry class! I used the die to cut the wreath out of the card front, and then attached a colored die cut wreath to the inside of the card. Eventually things came together, but it took me the better part of a night!
Red Stickles decorate the berries and red rhinestone are attached to the glitter paper snowflakes.
