Not that I want to keep you from shopping but other small stamps work too. Like hearts, paw prints, etc.

Here’s one I started using feathers. Next one will be coffee related Monica.

Love the one with feathers, Farley!!! I'm going to try cutting the one I started on my Silhouette.. with a craft knife... and then give this a try over the weekend. I need to switch from the die-cutting marathon to something easier on my muscles... LOL.... so... going to be scrapping and stamping this weekend!!

Looking forward to seeing this feather one finished!

I was able to fish cutting my template with a craft knife. Yay!!

Here are a couple designs I stamped this morning. This is fun! I’m not sure I would have bought this template for $13 plus postage, though.

I love them all!

Another technique to try someday and definitely with a handmade template.

Hmmm...I can picture a huge template for LOs and one or many photos arranged on a big wreath.

Very nice, Debi. I love this technique. I hope to pull out the Christmas stamps this week and see if I have anything that will work.

Thankyou Farley for sharing this fun idea! I've been playing along too. The "birthday" card has a 4" square and the other squares are a 5" sitting on top of a 8".

Kathryn your cards are wonderful! Love the colors on your first one and that’s a great idea layering the wreaths on the second card. Very fun. Glad you are enjoying this technique.
