Altered Christmas Wreath by Tania Ridgwell

Hi there!

Tania joining you today to share my first project for November. 
I have altered a Christmas Wreath that I picked up from Kmart.

2 Crafty Chipboard Used:

*Poinsettia Set

*Merry Christmas Title

*Holly Twig Branches

*Celebration Swirls

The wreath before I altered it.

I coloured the Poinsettia chippies with a mixture of Kaisercraft Red Iridescent & Gold Shimmer Sprays and the edges I painted with Brush Leaf Interior Antique Gold Paint.  The Holly Twig Branch chippies I coloured with Kaisercraft Rose Gold Iridescent & Gold Shimmer Sprays.  The Celebration Swirl chippies have been coloured with Heidi Swapp Chartreuse Color Shine and the Merry Christmas chippie I coloured with Kaisercraft Gold Shimmer Spray.

To construct the wreath I added all my Poinsettia chippie pieces first and then added my paper blooms.

I then tucked in the Holly Twig Branch chippies amongst the Poinsettia chippies and paper blooms.  I kept some of them as is and some of them I cut into pieces.

I add the Merry Christmas chippie title along the bottom of the Wreath and finished if off by randomly dabbing on some gesso onto the Wreath, chippie pieces and paper blooms to give it a snow like effect.

Thats' all from me today, I hope I have inspired you all a little with my Christmas Wreath. 
 Until next time thanks so much for stopping by.
