This card measures 5" square. The embossing folder and dies are made by Stampin' Up!.
I started this card by cutting a piece of reddish-brown sturdy scrapbook paper 5" by 12". I inked up an embossing folder by running the Distress ink pad (Gathered Twigs) on the raised side. Then, I laid the paper inside, closed the embossing folder and ran it through my Big Kick. After that, I cut it down to 5" by 10" and folded it in half.
To make the wreath, I die cut two different wreaths out of a light and dark green textured scrapbook paper. I intertwined them by moving some of the dark green leaves in the back to the front. Then, I die cut the pears out of a golden yellow card stock. Next, I cut the kumquats out of orange card stock using a hand-held round hole punch. I glued both elements to the wreath.
I made this card specifically for the challenge listed below, and I used all six colors matching them as closely as I could.
