Autumn Wreath

 I started off with a circular florist wreath
I die cut lots of leaves using the Tim Holtz Tattered Leaves and Layered Leaf dies and my Vagabond
I then inked them all and embossed them before inking again - I used Distress Inks Rusty Hinge, Spiced Marmalade, Tea Dye and Crushed Olive

I bunched them together in 4/5's and tied with florist tape.

I then set about adding them to my prepared ring - I added drops of glue here and there and curled my leaves as I added them

When they were all on I added some bits and bobs that I had picked up in the park

I sprayed the whole wreath with a mixture of re-inker and perfect pearls I let it dry and sprayed again

To finish it I sprayed with Spray and Shine



A couple of close up so that you, hopefully can see the shine and sparkle
