Blog Hopping!

Thanks to Theresa for kicking off our Create a Wreath Blog Hop between our USA blog and our UK blog.

Over the next week you are going to see inspiration from both sides of the pond!  Each day we will feature 2 USA Design Team members and 2 Design Team members from the UK, hopping between each blog.

Leave a comment on the blog posts and you will be in with a chance of winning a Create a Wreath kit just for you!  Each day the USA Design Team members will pick a winner and the UK Design Team members will pick a winner - so everyone in the USA has 2 chances and everyone in the UK has 2 chances to win each day!

At the end of the week Theresa will pick a winner from all the USA comments left and I will pick a winner from all the UK comments left and they will receive one of each of the Create a Wreath Kits!

So if you have not seen our Create a Wreath Kits before, there are 6 different ones to choose from ....

    












The kits contain enough elements to make 2 wreaths, everything is die cut so no cutting out, you just have to add the glue and some scissors to cut the ribbon.  Simply cover the chipboard rings or hearts with the die cut paper, add the ribbon ties, curl and shape the petals and layer the flowers together.  Attach them to the ring or heart and you are finished and this is what they will look like ...

 




You can get as creative as you want with the Create a Wreath kits, why not use them with a Candle in the centre, they will look fabulous as a centre piece on your table.


Use the flowers on cards too ...
So be sure to join us for the rest of the week and see what both Design Teams make with our Create a Wreath kits.

If you are in the UK and want to buy a Create a Wreath kit they are available from craft shops on on-line here.

If you would like the chance to win a Create a Wreath kit don't forget to leave a comment on this blog post and each day we will randomly choose a winner and a lovely Create A Wreath Kit will be on its way to you!

Now you need to hop over to the USA Blog and see what Sherri has made!

Enjoy the blog hop!

As soon as I heard these flower wreaths were going to be on sale in my local craft shop last year, I was so excited to get them I got creating straight away, they are such a fresh simple idea, yet so effective, and make a lovely, versatile gift for all occasions, my family and friends were over the moon to receive them, everyone who has seen them gave lovely compliments, I also got lots of orders to make, so well done to the design team for coming up with such fresh beautiful products, I would love a chance to win some so thankyou, I'm off now to see the projects from accross the pond, you's must be so proud to see your products going global, and to see how they inspire different people in different ways, well done!!! you's do a brilliant job of producing beautiful designs with quality second to none :)... lots of crafty hugs..fee xxx

Amazing project! I love crafting and card making. Both give so many inspiring ideas. Your project has become a source for me to apply new techniques. I've also read this book by Altered Upcycling recently. Check it out!
