Hi, Friends!
Welcome to the Simon Says Stamp Handmade Holiday Blog Hop! This is day 1 of a 2 day celebration so be sure to check back tomorrow for more inspiration! I hope you’ll find lots of inspiration during your stops today! If you want to be see even more inspiration, be sure to check out the Handmade Holly Gallery! Today, I’m sharing a project made using the new Christmas Wreath stencil.

I used Simon Says Stamp dye inks to stencil the Christmas Wreath onto a white panel. I started with the Watermelon ink for the poinsettia, then darkened the centers with Schoolhouse Red ink. Next, I ink-ed up the pine sprigs using Evergreen ink. I used Key Lime ink for the holly and finally Teal ink for the floral branches.

When I was done stenciling with the colors, I kept the stencil in place to use some new Glitz Glitter Gel. I used the Citrine Glitz Glitter Gel for the poinsettia centers and Cherry Glitz Glitter Gel for the holly berries. For some added interest, I splattered my panel with some gold paint from my Finetec Mica Watercolor Palette.

The sentiment I used is from the new Love Peace Joy Rainbow stamp set. I embossed the words in white over black cardstock. Before adhering, I gathered up some gold thread and used the sentiment strips to hold them in place while adhering them down with foam adhesive.
I hope you enjoyed this card! There is a fun shopping promotion just for you for being here:

Ah, Caly, your card is gorgeous!
