First Day of Autumn Blog Hop

Hi Everyone!

Welcome to the First Day of Autumn Blog Hop hosted by Lisa from HoneyBearz Designs.
I am very excited to be a part of this hop with such wonderfully crafty people!

If you just happened to stop by my blog today (Thanks!), make sure you go back to Lisa's site to make sure you don't miss a thing!

Autumn is my absolute favorite time of the year!  I love the cool air and all of the changing colors.
The beauty of nature will be all around us soon.

I've been inspired by all of the awesome wreaths I've seen others making lately so I had to make my own to celebrate my favorite season.


This was made entirely from the DCWV Harvest stack.  If you are a fan of Autumn- you must get this paper.  It's beautiful.

The bottom layer large paper cones are 6" squares rolled into a cone shape and hot glued onto a cardboard wreath shape.
The next layer is made with 4.5" squares rolled into cones and hot glued on to the bottom layer.
All the flowers were cut with the Cricut Flower Shoppe cartridge.
I wrapped some Hand Dyed Crinkle Ribbon throughout the wreath and tied it into a little bow.

One lucky follower will receive the Harvest Bundle, Winter Bundle, and Spooky Bundle of Crinkle Ribbon from 3 Girl Jam.
For extra chances to win- follow 3 Girl JAM and like them on facebook.



Random.org will choose a winner on Monday.

Your next stop is Gina!

    What a gorgeous wreath. Beautiful colors. Don't you just love Flower Shoppe?! It's become one of my top favorites. New follower and I "liked" your 3 Girl JAM page on FB. Nice being in the hop with you.
