Holiday Wreath Wall Hanging

Today, we have a gorgeous holiday wreath designed by Shaunte Wadley for Core’dinations  ColorCore Cardstock.  Make sure you visit her personal blog HERE!

You will need:

• Tim Holtz Adirondack ColorCore Collection
• Paper Trimmer
• Star Craft Punch or Template
• Circle Craft Punch or Template
• 6″ Circle Template
• 4″ Circle Template
• Scoring Board
• Darice Polka Dot Embossing Folder
• 1 to 1 1/2″ Wide by 8″ Long Ribbon of Your Choice
• Sanding Disc
• Adhesive
• 8×10 Photo Frame, with a 5×7 Photo Opening

Select three colors of green cardstock from the Tim Holtz Adirondack ColorCore Collection.  From the dark green cardstock, cut a 6″ circle. Cut a 4″ circle in the center of the 6″ circle to create a ring.  Set aside.

Using a template or craft punch, cut several 2″ stars from all three colors of green cardstock.  Adhere part of the stars to the cardstock wreath to cover.

With remaining stars, score a line from the top of each point straight down to the inside point, as shown. Repeat for each of the five points.

Sand each star to reveal the lighter core.

Pinch each star tip to create a 3-dimensional star.

Adhere 3-D stars to wreath, applying adhesive to each corner on the underside, to allow stars to remain 3-dimensional when attached to wreath.

Select dark red cardstock from Tim Holtz Adirondack ColorCore  collection.  Using a circle punch or template, cut several 1/2″ circles.  Adhere circles as desired on wreath.

Tie an 8″ length of ribbon into a bow, and adhere to wreath.

Select dark brown cardstock from Tim Holtz Adirondack ColorCore  collection, and cut it to fit the entire back of the photo mat.  Cut a second piece of dark brown cardstock slightly smaller (approximately 4×6″) than inner opening of the photo opening.  Using the polka dot embossing folder, emboss the smaller piece, and sand it to reveal the lighter core color underneath.  Adhere this second piece to the inner opening of frame.

Adhere wreath to outside mat.  Place inside frame, with the glass removed.
