THINKING OF YOU in the Fall!! I am SOOO excited that it is cooling off here- and to celebrate I made a card using mostly punches!! I wanted to try and create a wreath... I made this one from LINEN THREAD and some leaves punched from the BIRD PUNCH!!
I am SO pleased at how this wreath turned out, it was super easy to create.
- I placed 2 glue dots on the card front roughly the diameter that I wanted the wreath (the glue dots were opposit each other in the circle form)
- as I wrapped the LINEN THREAD on a circle I impressed it into the glue dots on both sides, over and over
- I punched out the branch/leaf shape from the BIRD PUNCH several times in CHERRY COBBLER, MORE MUSTARD, OLD OLIVE, SO SAFFRON, PUMPKIN PIE.
- Using Tombo multipurpose glue I attached the leaf/branch shapes to the wreath.
Of course I had to come back and layer in a TON of TINTED DAZZLING DETAILS!! I used a few challenges to help inspire me, like always. I took the color scheme from Color Throw-down, the inspiration from Stampin' Celebration, and the sketch from Techno Stamper.
