Hello Back again Naturally!


I am keeping my promise I made to you at least once update a week! Wahooo!
I did a Vintage Wreath,  using cardboard and other.
Well here is how I did it!
I didn't took picture before I begin to paste the collage. But is explain what I did.

Make this using a very simple way!
I use a dish to make a circle in a cardboard of a 12x12 paper pad.

I trace the dish and cut it up with scissors 




Then I use the front of a pad the had Xmas paper picture & cut it then
paste it over the border of the circle.  Dont need to be precise this will be cover.

  


When is all cover sand the outside of the circle very lightly then you can ink the border of
the circle with ink pad or a marker.  The centre will be cover so not worry.
The I made a centre circle with a cutting machine, I took the centre out to use it later and economizes
paper
Then I cut a scallop circle with machine. Now I have use 2 circle over the cardboard.
This is the third (3) circle the centre is cut out because I am using it in another project. 

The fourth (4) circle is the circle I took out from circle 1, so   I only use one
sheet of paper for both circles.

This is the back I cut a 12x12 paper to cover the back, before pasting the paper in the back; I
glue a ribbon, so it can be hang. Use a wet strong  glue.


I also paste another circle in a doily stile, but I didn't took picture, you can leave it like this but because it was vintage I decide to use a doily
Then I paste six (6) Christmas flower and five (5) white flowers all done by hand, you can buy then do it using cutting machine or dies.  I leave a space to paste the ribbon.
The size of the flower will depend of the size you decide to make your wreath . I imagine a clock to paste the flower.
Then after the flower are pasted yo use your central figure.  And do a bow.
