A Christmas Wreath




Today I would like to share with you a special Christmas wreath. It was a lot of fun to create with non-Christmas images. I used Christmas items to transform these cute little images into a Christmas design.

To create my wreath I used the following stamps: Lili's Pumpkin, Nurse Lili, Lili's Cleaning Day. I used Copic markers Skin & Eyes E000, E00, B93, R20; Nurse R46, E31, YR20, YR21, C00; Hair on the other two E25, E31, E50; vacuum cleaner C0, C1, C3, Y13. For the earrings and buttons I used Liquid Pearls white, platinum and red. Lili's Pumpkin and Lil's cleaning day I did paper piercing with Graphic 45 Christmas Emporium and Authentique Peaceful. To create the flowers I used two different size Spellbinders circle die and red tulle. Lastly, to embellish the wreath I added flowers, two chipboard pieces from Graphic 45 Christmas Emporium with some green polka dot ribbon, misc. embellishments, and I used Cherry Lynne die small flourish. And a beautiful bow as the finishing touch.
