Judes Christmas Wreath...

Firstly apologies for the terrible photos....we were just messing about yesterday afternoon and when it turned out so good I decided to post it up here to share with you all....next time we are messing about I will make sure to take better pics!
This is Judes Christmas Wreath which she will be hanging on her bedroom door to welcome Santa!
I have been watching a few tutorials on youtube for these wreaths made from old book pages and have been itching to give it a go.

We used an old cd for the base and tied the ribbon on it before we started....pink of course!
Because it was going to be quite a small wreath we cut the book pages in half.

Jude then rolled them into cone shapes and stapled them...they were still a little big so we trimmed them a bit..

then with the hot glue gun....I did that bit....we glued them all around the cd....keep going round and round until you have this......

Jude then coloured one of her fave SC images "Whispy" and we sprayed the whole wreath with some glimmer mist and she stuck on some snowflakes and diamonds!

I hope you like! Jude was so excited when I told her I was sharing it on here!
Hugs
Jane & Jude
