Trimmer-Cut Open Frame Wreath Card in Secret Sea with the Cottage Kindness Bundle
Here's a trick worth stealing: a die-cut frame doesn't have to stay solid.
We cut ours from Secret Sea Cardstock with the Cottage Kindness Dies, then slid it into the paper trimmer and sliced out the center so the Country Cottage Designer Series Paper shows through like a little window. A stamped wreath floats in the opening, a Crumb Cake banner sentiment runs across the middle, and a baker's twine bow plus three Cottage Charm Adhesive-Backed Sequins finish it off. Cozy, a little rustic, and much easier than it looks!

Project Details & Inspiration
We started with a Secret Sea Cardstock card base, a Basic White panel inside for writing, and a panel of Country Cottage Designer Series Paper centered on the front with a thin Secret Sea border all the way around. For the frame, die cut a scrap of Secret Sea with the Cottage Kindness Dies, then open up the center with your trimmer. Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back pop the frame up over the DSP.
The wreath is stamped in Secret Sea ink on Basic White, die cut with its coordinating Cottage Kindness die, and centered in the frame opening on dimensionals. Stamp the sentiment on the Crumb Cake strip in Secret Sea, snip both ends at a slant for a banner, and pop it across the middle of the wreath. Tuck a baker's twine bow behind the left end with a glue dot, then add three Cottage Charm Adhesive-Backed Sequins spaced evenly around the wreath.
