Paper Flower Wreath with Terhi | Video Tutorial

Mar

Hey Friends!
It’s Terhi here with you sharing some very colourful spring inspiration.
I was getting ready to host a small party, just because of spring and the upcoming summer, but obviously all these social occasions are now moved to future. But nothing will stop be cheering out home with flowers and colors!
Come and take a look, there’s a video at the end of this post.

This wreath is about 16″ wide, and I love it so much! I do love making small things like mini albums, but sometimes it’s fun to go really BIG.

As you can see from the process video, all of the blooms are created in very simple way. Most of them are rolled flowers, which means I have cut them with my Silhouette and then rolled the paper and glued it down. Others are layered flowers and they are just as simple as the others.
And what’s more, you can do it all using scissors if you prefer.

After I had all the flowers prepared, I cut all the leaves too and started to think about the design on the black metal hoop.

Hot glue became me dearest friend during the creation! It’s so quick and easy way to adhere the paper blooms together! First I adhered all the flowers and then the leaves.

Here’s the process video to brighten up your day!

Keep on crafting, it’s important during the times like this.

DIY Autumn Wreath

Leave a Comment

Hey everyone, Michelle here today sharing a new project using the This Is Family collection. This is one of my favorite Pebbles collection ever. The colors are absolutely gorgeous. When I saw the mustard yellow paper, I immediately thought of sunflowers. I found a beautiful sunflower cut file in the silhouette store. I started off my project by cutting out 3 of them.

I wasn’t quite sure what to do with them after they were cut out, but then I saw this wooden hoop I had in my scraproom and I knew I had to make a wreath. I cut out some leaves and twigs from the Silhouette store, The Cut Shoppe, and JustNick studio. I didn’t really have a plan, I just cut out a whole bunch and started sticking them to my wreath.

I really love all the layers and dimension it created. I even curled the sunflower petals a little bit to add some extra.

I finished it by added a greeting from the phrase thickers. This was a fun project to make. I can’t wait for fall to display this in my house.

Thanks for stopping by!

While scrapbooking and cardmaking will always be at our core, we often love creating different kind of projects for our home, as well as gifts for our family and friends.

A recent project that our founder, Brenda, took on with Jen was to create a wreath for her letterboard – one that could work for a short time or stay on for a longer season.

Even though Jen’s went on her letterboard, you can customize it to go where ever you’d like it! Make it bigger or smaller – it’s up to you!

To get started, here is your supply list:

Assortment of 12”x12” prints (one yellow, 3 different greens) from the This is Family collection
12″x12″ brown chipboard sheet
12″x12″ Yellow cardstock sheets*
12″x12″ White cardstock sheets*
12″x12″ Green cardstock sheets (2-3 coordinating shades)*
Small yellow felt balls
Clear rhinestones (round)
SVG cut file
Scoring tool
Hot glue gun with glue sticks
Tacky glue
1 sheet of 12”x12” chipboard (for the back of the wreath)

*Number of solid cardstock sheets will vary depending
on the final size of the project.

Step 1: Print out this PDF or download this SVG file and add it to your computer.

Step 2: Using either file, cut out an assortment of leaves from the different green cardstock prints and solids. Score and/or fold them in half and set aside. Cut out the wreath form as well and set aside.

Step 3: Cut out the yellow flowers. Adhere them together by adding a small line of hot glue to one side. Wrap the other side of the flower into a flower shape and adhere in place. Repeat until desired amount of flowers are created. Finish by adhering a yellow felt ball to the center of each flower. Set aside.

Step 4: Cut out the white flowers and an equal number of yellow center circles. Adhere the flowers together by adding a small dab of hot glue to one side of the notched area and wrap the other side into a flower shape and adhere in place. Repeat until desired amount of flowers are created. Finish by adhering a yellow circle to the center of each flower with hot glue or tacky glue as desired. Set aside.

Step 5: Start laying out the wreath with the flowers first. Adhere them into place once desired arrangement is achieved. Add in leaves around all the flowers until wreath is covered as desired.

Try adding this to your letterboard, craft room wall or front door!

Happy Glamper

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today. The warmer weather has my family thinking about future camping trips. We love to pack up the car and drive to one of our favorite camping spots … or even explore a new place. With the glamping craze, I thought maybe I should be decorating our camper … so I decided I needed to make a wreath for the camper door. Here is what I came up with.

This wreath was super easy to make. It took 2.5 rolls of burlap and maybe 15 minutes! Here is a tutorial I found on YouTube to explain how to create this beautiful ruffle wreath. Well then I had to think about how to decorate my wreath. I found a svg design for the camper from SVGcuts. It’s a 3 dimensional camper complete with a lawn flamingo in the front! I made my camper using pattern papers from Jen Hadfield’s Chasing Adventures collection. The hiking girl standing in front is an extra nice touch…don’t you think?

Next I had to figure out how to attach the camper to the wreath. Since the camper is make out of paper I didn’t want to use wire and chance ripping the camper. I finally opted to glue the camper to a blackboard sign. Of course this left me space on the sign I had to decorate with vinyl. I found the cutest Happy Camper cut file in the Silhouette store. I love the trees and mountain scenery behind the camper.

The blackboard sign hangs from a wire at the top of my wreath. I also added a pretty pink bow too.

I love how this turned out. It will be so fun to see people’s reactions when they see this beauty on our camper door!

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Where is your favorite place to go camping? I am always looking for a new adventure and would love to hear!

Be Mine Valentine Wreath

Feb

2 Comments

Have you seen the Pebbles Be Mine Collection? Oh, it is SO adorable! Amy here from The Happy Scraps today, and I had SO much fun playing with this collection. So much pink and red goodness. Today I’m going to show you how to make this Be Mine Valentine Wreath.

Collect all the Be Mine paper you’d like to use, along with the Valentine Minc Tags and the Be Mine red glittered thickers. I created my own wreath form out of chipboard, tracing a circle, then cutting it out.

Start by cutting several strips of paper to be 1″ x 4″.

You’ll bend each strip of paper, placing it on your chipboard wreath form, and then use a stapler to secure it to it.

Continue all the way around your wreath form, then start on the second row, offsetting it slightly.

For mine, I ended up with three rows.

Because I wanted to cover the staples that were showing, I trimmed the extra chipboard out of the center, so I wouldn’t have as much area to cover.

I got out my Sticky Thumb Cordless Glue Gun so I could attach some ric rac to the inner edge of the wreath.

I just put a little glue down at a time, and then placed the ric rac on it. I continued around the entire wreath doing this.

I pulled out the Valentine Minc Tags and the Minc Foil Applicator machine, along with some pink and silver foil.

I added the silver and pink to these tags, making it a perfect match to the Be Mine Collection.

I attached both of the tags together using adhesive on the back, making sure that they would stay where I wanted them for the wreath. Using the red glittered thickers, I attached the words BE MINE.

Next I tied a baker’s twine bow to the top of each tag.

Using two strands of baker’s twine, I tied a bow and attached it to the wreath.

With the tails of the baker’s twine from the bow attached to the wreath, I turned over my foiled tags, and put some adhesive on each, then I placed the baker’s twine tails onto the adhesive.

It created the perfect way to hang the tags!

You’re wreath is all finished! You didn’t even need to head out and find a wreath form!
