Hello, Diane here with you today on the Classy Cards 'n Such blog.

 

Today I have a fast and easy card to share with you, though it looks as

if you spent hours creating it!!  It took me about 30 minutes to create!

I first embossed my white card stock, then drew a light circle on so I would

have a starting point for my wreath.  I had a button jar sitting on my table,

 so I just traced the lid from that.

 

I used the Cheery Lynn Designs Wreath Strip to cut my twig branches.

I cut 6 strips, you get 3 large branches and 4 small, all from one Wreath Strip die cut.

 

Each twig branch has a little piece on the end to connect one to the other with a brad

if you want, but for this design, I snipped each off, it only took a couple of minutes to

do that.  I placed all the bigger branches on first, then filling in with the smaller ones.

To adhere the branches, I put some Art Adhesive glue on my mat and dipped the ends

only of the branches in it.

 

I know it does not show in the picture, but I "painted" Stickles here and there to give a

bit of  "sparkle" to the wreath.

I added a bow and left my wreath, as is, but you could decorate anyway "you" want

by adding Pearls or Rhinestones to change the look.

 

I am entering this in the challenge at City Crafters to "decorate" a wreath.

 

Hope you have enjoyed my quick project for today, and try one yourself.

See you soon!!
