I tried something new at the weekend!
I saw a paper wreath in Laura Ashley over the weekend for £12.00! I said to my daughter ......."I can make that with my Pazzles Inspiration, I think I will have a go!"
When I saw the beautiful
Holiday Frosting Paper Pack recently at Lettering Delights by Sheri Berry I couldn't wait to try out this project which is just perfect to show off the GORGEOUS paper pack.
On Sunday, the kids were doing their homework, husband was cooking a roast and I assembled this wreath at the kitchen table (hubby took photos of me assembling the wreath!).
I am so pleased how it has turned out that I wanted to share it with you.
First, I printed out lots of sheets of the papers. I LOVE them all so I kept printing! I ran the A4 paper through the printer twice so I had a design on both sides.
How to make the paper wreath.
I made the paper wreath base using my Pazzles Inspiration!

I drew x2 circles in my Pazzles Studio Pro software. One at 11.5" and the other at 6".
SELECT ALL and JUSTIFIED centrally on the page.
I used the thickest card I had in my stash and cut x3 wreaths and glued them together.
I then used my guillotine to cut heaps of strips 3/4" by 6".
I folded each 6" strip gently in half and glued together, then attached to the wreath.
I used a glue gun for the very 1st time! It enabled me to assemble all the pieces

to the wreath very quickly.
Working my way round the wreath - the trickiest bit was to decide which
paper strip to use as they are all so adorable!!
Almost done! I attached a ribbon to the wreath at the back and hung it up to enjoy!
