Wow! just wanted to say THANK YOU for all your kind comments and inquiries about my Spring Wreath post!  Many of you have asked if I'll be selling a tutorial for this.. no, I won't be doing that but I'm happy to share a few more details to help you make your own wreath.

If you'd like to join us in class, I have 2 spots open in the 2pm class on May 12.

you will need to bring your own Blossom Punch and hot glue gun.

Supplies used for the wreath:

• 10" styrofoam wreath base (available at craft stores)
• hot glue gun (it didn't seem to matter if i used high or low temp glue)
• Blossom Punch (#125603)
• Designer Paper from Stampin' Up! (Sale a Bration paper shown)
• cardstock
• 3/4" and 1" circle punch
• paper piercer and mat pack
• assorted brads
• 1-1/4" wide striped grosgrain ribbon

NOTE: I used ABOUT 60 punched Blossom flowers for this 10" wreath.

Step 1: start by punching a TON of blossom punches and circle punches

Step 2: curl blossom punchouts with a bone folder, like you were curling "curling ribbon"

Step 3: layer a circle or 2 onto a blossom punch, and poke a hole and add a brad, set aside

Step 4: same as step 3, but layer TWO blossom punches with the circles and brad

Step 5: once you have about a dozen or 15 of the flowers ready, start hot gluing them onto your wreath… if you put the glue on the back of your flower, and then put that onto the wreath, it allows you to place the flowers at the exact angle you want

Step 6:  before you have covered the entire wreath, add a loop of ribbon around the wreath for the bow, and/or a loop of ribbon to hang your wreath with

Step 7: finish adding flowers as desired, hang your wreath and enjoy!

here are a few close ups of my wreath… be creative.. mix and match various punches, papers, brads, etc… have fun with this one!
