I started this A2 card by making the background. I used a wood plank embossing folder and inked up the raised lines with a Distress Oxide ink pad in Brushed Corduroy. I placed a manila-colored card stock measuring 4" by 5 1/4" inside and ran it through my Big Kick. I adhered that to a manila-colored card base with double-sided tape.
Then, I made the green wreath. I used a piece of multimedia paper and swirled on three different colors of Distress Oxide greens. I buffed the extra color off with a rag. I used a Stampin' Up! wreath die and ran it through my Big Kick. I adhere that to the top of the wood plank panel with glue. I chose 6 red buttons to make the "apples" and glued them to the wreath.
After that, I stamped the sentiment (Stampin' Up!) using a Distress Oxide that matched the color of the bow. I attached the bow and the tag with glue.
