DCWV Fall Paper Wreath

Hello, DCWV friends! It is Jessi from the Social Media Design Team. It is Fall and it is time to bring out the fall home décor! A few weeks ago, I shared the start of my decorating with the new Lia Griffith DIY Project Stacks. Today, I am adding to the décor using the new DCWV Autumn Leaves Stack.


This is such a simple wreath to recreate! All you need is the DCWV Autumn Leaves Stack, glue, and a wire coat hanger!

To start the project, form a circle with the wire hanger. You can make the circle to the size that fits your needs.


Next, cut strips of printed paper. You can cut them at any width, mine are done at 1.5inches.


Fold the strips in half and place glue on the inside of one side. Put the crease of strip along the wire and fold in half. Repeat until the circle is full.  To add some detail, I cut part of the strips to make pendant-like tips at the end of the strips. To fill in the gaps in between the wreath, I added a variety of printed strips. To finish the wreath, I cut out a 12inch sentiment and placed across the center.


Thank you for stopping by!

Have a great day!

Guest Designer - Top Dog Dies - Fall Pocket Page Die Set

I am excited to share my last guest designer project for Top Dog Dies. If you happened to miss their latest release, please stop by their store to see the fabulous designs.

I created a fall wreath using the Fall Pocket Page Die set.

 

 I paired the pocket page die with some yummy fall printed papers, with foil accents. To highlight the title, I added a group of leaves to two sides. The leaves dies are used on matching fall printed papers.  The simple squirrel is add to the title.  I felt that the squirrel needed something extra, so I added a small acorn to its hands. A satin ribbon is added so you can hang the wreath.
 

Before I started this project, I cut out a number of leaves from a mixture of papers. I ended up having extras after I was done with the wreath. I used the extras to make the simple fall card below. A sentiment it added to a strip of paper. To highlight the sentiment, I added a few acorn diecuts.
