Hi everyone! Second card with the parts I glued up with the NEW Birch Press Design dies. This time I used a NEW Memory Box die for the background. Fanciful Gilded Frame.
The first thing I made with the frame though was this place card! I looked at the die and thought, this could be folded in half and used for table decorations!
I made this in 15 minutes! That’s a record make for me time wise!
Back to the top card…
I started the wreath by laying out the four large leaves I’d made from the Forest Leaf and Berries Contour Layers dies, top, bottom and both sides.
Then I added four of the Jolly Holly Contour Layers dies.
Then I went back to the Forest set and put in the four small dies, pretty much beside the holly.
Then I added the berries from the Jolly Holly dies.
I only had two of the small branches from the Oval Leaf Brances Contour Layer so I added them on the inside of the wreath top and bottom.
I cut up the Budding Twigs Contour Layers dies and inserted them here and there.
It looks complicated to me but laying it out like this, it went together fast! YAY!
It really turned out pretty if I do say so myself! lol I never know! lol
I added some Memory Box Pastel Fairy Jewels in the light green color….matchy! lol
It’s an A2 size card and will go through the mail fine with one stamp! YAY!
Back to the pumpkin…
Do you do name cards? We don’t because…big family! I took pictures of this design without the banner too because I would more than likely use it more for a decorative piece here and there or maybe to put in front of a dish to tell what it is!
I love this pretty NEW Autumn Pumpkin from Memory Box. The details are ‘built in’… die cut and it’s ready to go! I did add a little Spiced Marmalade Distress ink with an ink blending brush but you wouldn’t have to!
I quick cut an extra pumpkin to back the pumpkin. View from the back….
I had this denim looking cardstock still out on the desk so I used it but you could use any Autumn color you like!
Here it is with the banner again. I used the banner die from a poppystamps foil and cut die set, Modest Banner Greetings.
Both designs are festive and fun! YAY for holidays!
One more thing….I made some kits for stamp club this month and I have three left. Everything is die cut/included to make one card! $15 includes the postage to you in the USA. This is the card for the kit. OH, I did use a white glaze pen on the icing, eyes and buttons and some blush on the ginger’s cheeks. That is not included in the kit.
Email or comment if you want one!

These are beautiful, Pam! Thank you for sharing!
All three cards are spectacular, thanks for the inspiration!
The card is awesome. How much glue did you use and how much time to glue it all together. LOL
Wonderful creations! Love the colors of green on the wreath card!!
Oh my word – these are so gorgeous! I’m smitten big-time with that die you used on your place cards. Very nice, my friend!!! Thanks for sharing!
Fantastic cards, Pam!
I love both of these Pam! I have always liked wreaths-and I don’t know how many different wreaths I have bought over the years-only to not really like them. I love this one!! Also love the placemat. I used to do that for special family dinners etc! So fun. Gee I hate getting old some days-wishing I still had some of that energy I used to have-ha ha!!
Love the cards. You really have the eye.
Oh my your wreath is gorgeous and so full, love how you put it together and that pumpkin place cards is so neat, very creative!
These are AMAZING projects! The wreath is thick and wonderful, plus beautiful with the iron works behind it. Your nameplace holder is darling, although I too would use it to label a dish or something. Then there’s that stinkin’ adorable gingerman!!! Wow
I’ve looked at the gilded frame die and thought it was pretty, but leave it to you to make it look fantastic! The wreath is incredible with so much depth and detail, and the background makes it super festive. Brilliant idea to use it as a place card with the pumpkin for Thanksgiving dinner. We aren’t fancy enough for place cards, but I love the idea and think it could have many uses in this form for different occasions. Awesome inspiration as always, Pam!
Oh that card is so pretty! I love the place card too! You are so creative with your dies! Thanks so much for sharing!
Love the kit – and love the name card idea with that die!! Your work is always incredible Pam ❤
