HOW TO MAKE A CHRISTMAS WREATH LIKE THIS ONE
Supplies 3 sheets 12 x 12 papers I found that thinner papers work better - I made one tonight from BG and it didn't look as smooth. 2 sheet of Cardstock thick the better you could even use chipboard for the base if you wanted iit to be really sturdy I just usedBazzill.
Lots of ribbon for your trees
Liquid glue I used Magic Scraps
Instructions
1) Draw a 11 inch circle onto your base card and cut out - next draw an 8 inch circle in the middle of your 11 inch circle and cut it out leaving you with a 3 inch ring shaped base
2) Cut your paper into 3 x 3 inch squares
3) Fold these squares loosely in half and glue together at one end to make a tube.
4) Cut 5 slits into this folded tube to make the "ribbon" effect
5) Glue the tube to your ring Continue all the way round until finished
6 ) Cut out 2 triangles from card for the trees and decorate with ribbon and then glue to your ring add a message to the bottom if you wish and attach a ribbon to hang it up with.
