Good Sunday morning. My project today was made using the new Impression Obsession Leafy Wreath paired with the Leafy Branch 2. The Leafy Branch 2 has become one of my favorite go to dies when I want to add soft foliage to a project. I was very excited to see how perfectly the size of the leaves on wreath and branch work together. The wreath set also comes with several sweet bird dies but today I chose to fill my wreath with lots of tiny red flowers.
I cut the wreath out twice, one green and one kraft. I wanted to place a brown wreath behind the green to give the appearance of a grapevine wreath covered with foliage. I attached the wreaths together with a few drops of glossy accents offsetting them so some of the individual brown sprigs of vine would stick out and add interest.
I turned the wreaths face down on the molding pad and formed them lightly with my largest stylus to round it. I cut several pieces of leafy branch 2 , cut them apart and attached to the wreath to create a spray of foliage. I cut several tiny pieces of the branch and attached around the wreath so the leaves would pop up off the wreath to give a more natural appearance. I formed lots of tiny flowers with my mini tipped stylus and attached all around the wreath with glossy accents. I added the red organdy multi loop bow for the perfect finishing touch.
Here’s a closer view.
I hope you are enjoying your weekend. Thanks for stopping by.
