We're not quite in autumn yet but those soft colours are beginning to creep into the landscape and leaves. For this project, I've used a Tim Holtz die called Tattered Leaves but you can hand cut your own shapes. Fold a piece of card in half and draw half a leaf shape with the fold as the centre of the leaf. Cut and voila! Colour the edges of the leaves and roll the edges round a paint brush to make them curl in a leafy way. Cut out a circle from strong card and get your glue gun going. Add any embellishments you happened to have, raffia would have made a perfect bow on this but I couldn't find mine.
The video shows you how to make those berry like clusters as well as the whole wreath. Hang it somewhere you can enjoy it as the nights lengthen.
