Curly Whirly Wreath

I just love the curly whirly flowers from Craftwork Cards and so had to have a go at making a curly whirly wreath!

This was made using the Curly Whirly Candle Ring in Sweet Pea.  I sprayed the back of all of the flowers with a purple Glimmer Mist spray and was quite surprised by how much this changed the overall appearance of the finished wreath.  Rather than using the ribbon in the kit I used some purple and cream seam binding and this also changed the overall look.

Here are a couple of close ups showing the detail on the flowers:

I sprayed the finished wreath with silver Spray and Sparkle to make it more durable and to give it a shimmery finish.

Curly Whirly Wreath

I just love the curly whirly flowers from Craftwork Cards.  I made this wreath using a mini kit which contained the flowers, the chipboard ring and some lovely ribbon.

First of all I sprayed the backs of all of the flowers using a Latte Glimmer Mists spray.  Once dry I curled the petals and stuck the flowers together using Cosmic Shimmer glue - this is an amazing adhesive.  It dries quickly, sticks really well and a pot lasts for ages.

I painted the chipboard ring with a silver Tim Holtz Dabber when it was dry I attached the ribbon.  After I had glued the flowers onto the ring and added Candi to their centres, I sprayed the wreath with silver Spray and Sparkle 3 times.

Here's a picture of the finished article:
