Fall Wreath

Hi everyone! I have been doing more decor projects than scrap/cards lately. Here is a project I made after scrolling through some blogs. When I saw this I HAD to make one of my own, ended up making two! I have been searching for a cute wreath and I'm not really into the traditional ones. This one was perfect for my style! I found this on Christi's blog Scrappin 5 Little Cupcakes and I got a lot of info on to to make it there and also on Lauren's blog Lauren's Creative. Take a minute to visit their blogs too, their wreaths are absolutely gorgeous!!

The supplies are:

Hot Glue Gun (My first time using one and I scorched my finger - ouch!)

Wire Cutter

 Scissors

14" Wreath

Any Fall related picks - I got mine from Michael's

Yarn - Any color scheme.I used multi colored Green and a brown. I had enough to make two wreaths

Ribbon

(5) Sheets of 9 x 12 Felt

(I got all my supplies from Wal-Mart except the fall picks and wreath!)

Christi has step by step instructions on her blog, along with pictures! 

Here are a few more links to help with this project(that I got off their blogs)!

'Hang in there' Card

Today I made a card for the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge #61, Sketch with a Twist. The 'twist' was to use twine or embroidery floss and follow this sketch. 

The card size is 6x3. For the patterned paper I used DCVW's Immortal Love stack, the twine is Maraschino from The Twinery and for the cute spider face I used Peachy Keen Stamps Monsters 'n More set.

I finished the card off with a sentiment from my 'Say Something' stamp set and added some stitching around the base with my Sakura gel pen. Enjoy!

Have a great weekend, Lauren
