Papertrey Ink September 2013 Blog Hop Challenge | Wreaths

 
Hello there fellow Papertrey Ink friends.  I am thrilled to be able to once again participate in this month's blog hop after a month away.  I was so excited I even dreamed about making a card for the hop! 
 
This month's theme is:
 

 
For more information or to see the other amazing projects go to Nichole Heady's blog HERE.
 
Here's my wreath project: 
 
 
After some crash and burns failed attempts at wreath-making I finally came up with a super simple design using a frame from Mat Stack 2 Collection stamp set which I stamped 4 times.  I then added some dots from the Daydreamer stamp set and a flower from Mini Blooms that I stamped upon its matching die.  The sentiment is also from Mat Stack 2 Collection.  I added some Stickles to each of the circled...needed a little glitter, don't you think?  Last is the strip of patterned paper which has all three of the main colors added under the panel with adhered with foam adhesive.
 
 
 
 
There you have it.  Thank you so very much for visiting my blog.  It was an honor to be among all you crazy talented stampers!
 
Happy creating,
Shay.
