Christmas Wreath


Hi  this is my second post for the night, wow!! I wanted to share with you a wreath I have been working on. I used the Winter Woodland Cricut Cartridge to make the  holly leaves on the wreath. It took me about three days to make. I used three different colors of green cardstock. I  cut the leaves out at different sizes , and I scored every leaf, sprayed some with glimmer mist, inked  them, and curled them. I finally hot glued them onto  a  foam wreath and added some red berries.  I loved the way it turned out! I plan on hanging it in my new craftroom my hubby is making for me:) Have a great night everyone!!

    Throwback Thursday Challenge!

    Hi to my crafty friends! I wanted to do another Throwback Thursday Challenge with Emma at My Creative Time. I love her challenges they are so much fun, Plus I like to use her Awesome stamps!!! This week's challenge is to make a card or scrapbook layout using the Cricut Cartridge Walk in My Garden.You also have to include flowers on the project. So I thought when I think of flowers I think of the cute little watering can.  I used my gypsy to make this little watering can, and I added a flower I layered using Walk in My Garden Cricut Cartridge. I used Mom You Rock Stamp Set designed by Emma. I also used my I rock to put the little bling on the watering can. I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!!!

    Hugs,
    Kristin
