Autumn wreath

 I would like to make a real life version of this wreath.  When The Greetery came out with this Shiplap die and I saw all the neat ways the girls were using it, I thought oh man I need to get that die and I didn't waste anytime and bought it the day it came out, I will really try not to use it in every card I make from here on out, LOL!


I also broke out my foliage dies and put together some leaves and acorn to decorate the wreath, as you see the birds are enjoying it too.


The Greetery - Shiplap Builder die and Robin and Wren stamp
Sizzix, Tim Holtz - Funky Foliage dies
Spellbinders - Wreath die
Martha Stewart - tag punch
Fiskars - Essential sayings stamp



Thanks so much for taking the time out of your busy day to stop by and say Hi,
Hope you all enjoy a great weekend, we will be in the 80's the next couple of days but then we will go into fall temps next week even going as low as 60's a few days.

OH! Girlfriend this is AWESOME!! OMG I have to get my hands on that shiplap die (hope their not all sold out!). It's the perfect backdrop for this lovely fall wreath. Well done!!
Yes it's been upper 70s (very near 80) most of the week but that's going to change come Monday. Then for the next 10 days they are saying 60s for daytime highs and 40s for nighttime lows. Yep, sure sounds like Fall to me! HUGS and HAPPY WEEKEND!!

Such pretty dies! I love the bird stamps too. This is a wonderful fall card. It was 90 yesterday in Denver. Going to be hot today too. Tomorrow and Monday high in low 60’s. Yay! That will feel nice.

Awesome background and beautiful fall wreath! I love the little birds! (BTW -- I know how you feel about getting something you really love --- I tend to use my favorites over and over again and hope people don't get tired of seeing them!)

This is so pretty, Connie! I love the fall leaves and the little birds and that background looks so real! Hope you get some real fall color soon. It is pouring rain here right now, but I am not complaining. It's been so dry. Take care xx Hugs
