Christmas Wreath

This week we entered the Trimmies Craft Challenge blog. The challenge was to use the picture above as inspiration for a paper project.

Just for a change, I decided to make something for the home rather than a card.

Here is my interpretation -

This wreath was very quick and easy to make using the Spellbinders Fall Foliage dies

Spellbinders Foliage dies

and the twigs from the Spellbinders Cherry Blossom dies

 Once I had die cut a big pile of leaves, pine cones and twigs from green and brown card stock, I sanded them a little to bring out the embossing  and glued them onto a cardboard ring.

The bow was created using the Creative Expression Vintage Ribbon - Amber Brown and adhered with a sticky dot

I used one of the Crimson Cloud paper roses to embellish the bow and some Stickles for added Christmas sparkle.

Hope you like it!
