Stampin' Buds Blog Hop: White Pines

Welcome to the Stampin' Buds Team Blog Hop, this month we are featuring creations from the Close to My Heart White Pines paper collection.

If you have come from Tina's blog then you are hopping in the right direction.  I just love the embellishments that Tina used and I haven't gotten to play with the Urban paper pack yet but her use of the versatile papers is wonderful.

I have used the beautiful Close to My Heart White Pines paper for my creation this month.   I love making decorations for my home with Close to My Heart products so here is what I made:

What a fun holiday wreath!  This was very simple and came together quickly.  I just cut 3/4" x 12 strips from the 3 printed papers included in the White Pines paper pack along with the other cardstock included.  The papers are chocolate, fern and cranberry and are included in the White Pines paper pack.  I dove-tailed the ends of each 3/4" strip and then wrapped them around a straw wreath form I picked up at my local craft store.  I overlapped the papers as I wrapped them around the wreath and put a dot of adhesive on the point the paper meets on the backside of the wreath..

A few simple Cricut cuts from Close to My Heart Cartridges Artistry and Artbooking and some stickers from the White Pines Compliments made the perfect accents on this wreath.
