03 Dec Visions of Sugarplums Day #2
Welcome to day two of the Visions of Sugarplums Designer’s Hop!
For today’s project, I created a wreath out of handmade rolled paper flowers inserting pearls in the middle of each and the lightly glittering each flower to add sparkle and shine!
I stamped a sentiment banner using the Homespun Holidays stamp set and then created a sweet nosegay using Cake Crumbs seam binding, a Red & White Chenille Candy Cane, a couple of Rusty Jingle Bells, a button and twine!
The patterned papers are October Afternoon – Make it Merry along with a snipett of red/white polka dotted Washi tape from The Kraft Journal – yum!
*NEW* in December stamps & dies LIVE in the shop now!

The glistening rolled flowers with the pearl centres on the green and white gingham is extremely lovely. Wreathes are usually green, and here outdoors, ( hence the rusty bells) where there is always piles of white snow glistening. How clever you are. The candy cane puts such a lovely dollop of red. I could go on ad infinitum but we will save some for next time. Again you are one of the artists I admire immensely. Thank you for posting with us.
Blessings,
Carole
