The Purr-fect Christmas Design a Wreath Decoration
This wreath co-ordinates with my Hanging Baubles (cup829896_905).
Very easy to make, there are no step by step instructions as you simply print and cut out a few of the base rings to stick together to form a sturdy base, tie a ribbon to the ring to form a hanging loop, and the decoration is entirely up to you.
The foliage and some embellishments are easy cut if you don't like 'fussy cutting'. Will make a lovely decoration for over the festive period, why not add some battery operated fairy lights. The base ring is approx 8"x8", so the wreath will be larger once the foliage is on.
Of course you could use the embellishments for card-making and a backing paper is also included.

I printed the base slightly reduced( 6.5inches) onto 300gsm card, and cut out a second wreath from thick brown card and a third to cover the back from fir green card.
I glued the first two together with wet glue, added the ribbon hanger then attached the back outer layer also with wet glue, giving a nice rigid base.
I printed out the decoupage elements onto 200 gsm super smooth card and cut out more than I could use.
I built up the wreath using a combination of wet glue, glue gel and foam pads to combine to my liking.
I printed a greeting in Spanish, matted to red mirror card and attached with foam pads to the lower front.
This is such a super cute and colourful Christmas Cats wreath design, and the options are endless. I was cross at not finding a suitable space for the goldfish bowl! That will defo go on the next one! Love it! My finished wreath measures over 8.5inches across and down.
