Spring Wreath


Machine Used: Bosskut Gazelle
Software: Funtime Scrapbooking III
Files Used: Ruffled Butterfly by Judy Stark BKD105, Wildflower Cutout 0690,  Parker Pop Kut Flower by Judy Stark BKD103, Wildflower 0687
Materials: 12" Styrofoam Wreath, Fun Fur Yarn, Cardstock, Quilting Pearl Head Pins, Ribbon

So, we're almost into summer and here I am posting a spring wreath!!  I started this around Easter and then other projects took priority.  This was for fun and I'm glad that I finally took the time to complete it!!

My inspiration for this project was from a fellow Bosskut Design Team member Becki, you can find her project here.  I very much fell in love with the look and decided that it was something I had to try! 

With my dearest daughters influence, we choose the fur with pink, purple, blue, and green.  I picked out the colors pink, purple, and green to use on the flowers because those are my daughters favorites and she's my influence for this project.  :o)


I started out wrapping the yarn around the wreath.  I thought for sure that it would take a lot more time than it actually did!!


Then months later ;o), I finally get to cutting out the "Welcome" sentiment, the beautiful Bosskut die cut flowers, and the Ruffled Butterfly by Judy Stark BKD 105.  I attached the flower and butterfly diecuts to the wreath using the pearl head pins.


With the butterfly, I added some glitter to the wings and used ocean blue ColorBox fluid chalk inkpad to the edges.

The original intent was for this wreath to hang on the front door at spring time BUT once my daughter saw it, it was hers!  :o)  She asked if we could hang it on her bedroom door instead and I'm not about to tell her no on this one.

Thanks for looking!!
