Paper Wreath

Hi everyone,
Welcome to the 25 Days of Christmas. This is Day 17. My project today is a paper wreath. I have seen quite a few of these on the web. It's a great way to use up scraps or paper from a DCWV paper pad, it's almost impossible to kill one of those pads, they last forever!

To make my wreath you need a Styrofoam wreath, strips of paper measuring 12 x 1/4 (I used roughly 100 strips for my wreath), ribbon, hot glue

1. Tie your ribbon around your wreath to create a "hanger"

2. Cut all of your paper strips and then wrap them around a pencil to make curly strips

3. Use hot glue and glue strips to your wreath (be careful not to burn yourself, its a little inevitable)

Add any other decorations and you are done. I took mine to work and it's hanging on the outside of my office, looking very cute.




Doesn't look cool? I used Sparkle and Shine paper from CTMH. Thanks for visiting today.

Quickest Card ever!

Hi everyone, Welcome to the 25 Days of Christmas. Today is Day 15. I have a super easy card for you all. By this late in the season, the easier the better! This is my last week of work before break so I don't have much time left to make holiday projects.

The paper that I used is from My Mind's Eye. I just used a paper from the stack and a sentiment and it was a done deal!
I am sure that you've got some paper like this in your stash for those last minute quick cards!
