In today's video tutorial, I am going to show you how to create a Perennial Birthday wreath card and you can adapt my idea for any kind of occasion that you need.
This card idea is perfect if you have lots of leftover designer paper that you want to use up - just make sure when you choose a sheet that you like the patterns and colors on both sides - you will see why in a bit.
For my card phrase, I chose a stamp from the Perennial Birthday set - I like the font but also the size of this phrase. When choosing an image to stamp, make sure it matches the size of the other elements on your card. If you want the phrase to be the focal point, then it should be the biggest visual point on your card. On the other hand, if I had chosen a phrase that was really small, it wouldn't be noticed and would seem out of place compared to the size of the wreath.
Thanks for your comment Pam! This simple project IS a great way to use up all those scraps we have lying around. (perfect paper-hoarders project, hehe)

Thanks Michelle - and you are spot on: this project is perfect for using up scraps of leftover paper - I am such a hoarder of paper bits too!

Hi Julie! My thinking exactly. I can't wait to get my hands on the gorgeous Christmas paper this year. I had a sneak peek at Stampin' Up!s Holiday catalog and LOVE the paper that will be available September 4th.

Oh this is cute, and a great plan for tiny scraps. Wouldn't it be nice for Christmas too?
