Hello,
I must clarify I tried the technique only and not the product because I don't have them.
The first card I built the wreath on a 4 x 4 inch square white panel, then trimmed and layered onto my card base which has golden heat embossed sentiment.
After I stamped all the elements of the wreath, I added some Candy Cane Stickles on the berries, and painted some pine branches with Hero Arts Glimmer Metallic Gold Ink. The gold foiled bow is die cut using Hero Art Ornaments Infinity Dies.
Supplies for this card:
Cloud 9 Design Clear Stamp
Ranger Distress Ink (Crushed Olive, Peeled Paint)
Ranger Stickles (Candy Cane)
Gold Embossing Powder

For my second card, I wanted to make it CAS. So I decided to stamp the wreath right onto the card front. But I wasn't very successful in centering the wreath. So instead of rotating the paper, I rotated the stamp instead.
To do that, I secure both my guide (for the stamp, on to the base of the MISTI, the left of the photo), and the card (on the door, stamp size down when door closed, right side of the photo) with washi tape. I used a piece acetate for adhering the stamp. To stamp the wreath, I inked the stamp and then close the MISTI door onto it. In other words I am bringing the paper to the stamp, then I rotate the acetate with stamp using the guide and repeated the stamping. I hope this make sense.
After I finished building the wreath I added Stickles and painted some highlights with Perfect Pearl solutions. But I miss judged the distance between wreath and sentiment, so I added a Cardinal bird to link them together.
