Sweet Spring with Epiphany Crafts

February 27, 2013 by audreypettit

Hello Sweeties! A very happy Wednesday to you!

This weekend, we are having our annual spring garden party at the garden center. For weeks now, we’ve been talking and planning. Can’t wait to see all the beautiful fresh blooming plants that are coming in. The weather hasn’t really been cooperating, but I am ready for warm weather, sunny skies, and flowers. So flowers is what I made for our special Round Tool highlight this week on the Epiphany Crafts blog.

Just a simple spring wreath filled with lots of crazy flowers to add some festive cheer to my home.

I’ve never seen flowers like these before out in nature, but they do make me smile, and they were a ton of fun to put together. The flower shapes are die cut from Sizzix’s Alterations Tattered Florals die. I mixed and matched patterns and colors, stacking and layering. Pop dots between some of the layers add depth. I threw in some canvas scalloped circle die cuts from Little Yellow Bicycle’s new Naturals collection here and there, too.

Then topped each flower with a custom Epiphany Crafts round bubble cap. I used both the Round 14 and the Round 25 Shape Studio tools. And see those silver brads? Those are Epiphany’s Round 14 Silver Brad Settings. How awesome that you can make custom brads as well as custom bubble caps!

I have the step-by-steps for this wreath up on the Epiphany Crafts blog, if you’d like to take a peek. And did you see? Epiphany Crafts just announced their new design team yesterday.

Thanks so much for stopping by, my friends! Wishing you all a wonderful day!
