Peace Wreath for Die-Cember™

Hi everyone! It’s Shari here with a card idea using dies in an unexpected way. When I was preparing for Die-Cember™ I got this crazy idea of using a couple dies to create a natural looking wreath. So here is how it began.

PB dies

The branches are recognizable, but the flourish pieces are hidden within the arrangement. I had the best time putting it together!

With a little snip here and there before I knew it, I had a wreath. I didn’t glue the pieces down in their entirety, I secured them enough which allowed me to lift up parts for added dimension.

I put together a video showing how it all came together. Enjoy!

Thanks for stopping by today. I’d love to hear how you use your dies in unusual ways.

 

  1. Love your wreath, Shari. It reminds me of the tattered flower wreath that you did in one of the classes online. I love the color combination and the accent pearls. BEAUTIFUL!

  2. Thanks for the ideas. I have Christmas tree die (Impression Obession merry Christmas ) that has swirls top and bottom. I use the top swirl as a side scent on a sentiment label. It adds a bit of interest to the sentiment.

  3. Wow Shari! So inspirational. I love wreaths, but many of my family & friends do not feel the same way. (It reminds them of funerals & getting older). Thanks for showing me how to invest in a die set to create the wreaths I love, whilst still being able to form gorgeous non-wreath cards too.

  4. You are so clever this gives you another way to use these dies! This card is so elegant and the pearls look beautiful

  5. Shari,
    I have loved your videos for years. You are exceeding yourself with this video. What a gorgeous card and fabulous idea.

  6. Amazing card, Sheri. I have made some pieced-together wreaths before. This one is just stunning. Thanks for sharing it.

  7. Shari, What a beautiful idea. You are such an inspiration to me. Just when I feel empty, you come thru with a fab idea. Thanks so much!
