Nordic Wreath

Well, despite my best intentions to blog today, it is now nearly 11pm and I am only just getting around to the task!

I don't know exactly what you would call this item - it's a kind of hanging wreath, I guess, and I made it using all things from the Nordic Christmas collection at Crafter's Companion.
The image is one of the cute stamps which I coloured with my Spectrum Noirs, plus I added a bit of glitter to make those Christmas decorations sparkle.

For the wreath, I die cut the circle using 2 sizes of circle die and matted some backing paper on to it.

The CD has a lovely embellishments section too, and this is where I found all the lovely holly sprigs and heart shapes which I cut, curled and adhere to the base using silicon glue for a bit of lift.

If you look closely, you can also see that the backing paper looks like knitting…I love it!!

So that's my creation for today…time to enter a few challenges before I am off to bed.
