Mercer Rose Wreath

Hi, everyone.  So sorry for the late blog post today!

I love the stamps and dies that go together like today's feature, the Mercer Rose Wreath.  It's so delicate and beautiful.

Of course, I had to make it grungy.  I guess that just shows how versatile Memory Box stamps and dies are!

1. I inked up the Mercer Rose Wreath stamp (D1840) using Memento markers directly on the stamp.  I then "huffed" on the stamp to re-moisten it (I know it sounds disgusting but it works) and stamped on white card stock. 
2. Die cut the image with the Mercer Rose Wreath die (98322) and set aside.
3. Stamp Distressed Garden Record (g1848) onto white card stock and trim.  Then distress with Distress Inks.  I used Tumbled Glass, Shabby Shutters, and Dusty Concord.  Attach this piece to the new Slate card stock.
4. I die cut a piece of white card stock with the Charlotte Border Die (98242) and distressed it with Brushed Corduroy.  I cut a small strip of Slate card stock and a small strip of Wildbloom pattern paper and attached them over the strip and then attached all to the front of a Sweet Corn Note Card.
5. I attached the Distressed Garden Record with Foam Tape and the Mercer Rose Wreath with foam tape on top of that.
6. Stamp Something Special Combo onto a small piece of white card stock and attach to the front of the card.

I hope you have a great day!
