How Fun is the Gina K Wreath Builder Template!

[@kimlyne9700]

I LOVE that you have mixed so many brands together for this!

[@lostinpaper]

Thank you so much Kim

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Very pretty card. I too love the wreath builder. Thanks for sharing.

[@lostinpaper]

It's such a fun tool isn't it!

[@MoragDrummond]

That is utterly gorgeous

[@lostinpaper]

Thank you Morag

Hi Therese, Love your card, and thanks for showing us how to use the wreath builder with out it being a wreath!!! TFS, Cheers Anna.

[@lostinpaper]

Thank you so much Anna

[@ericastwilight]

I love the way you used the template builder. I adore the critter stamps, so cute and small. Thanks for sharing.

[@lostinpaper]

I think they were perfect for this little scene, kinda almost hidden lol.

[@SnigDig]

Love this use of the wreath builder! Beautiful! Definitely a sweet squirrel :) Thanks for the inspiration.

[@lostinpaper]

Thank you so much Jill

[@lindalanges7058]

Love that - makes that WB much more versatile - the addition of Peacock Feathers was perfect.

[@lostinpaper]

Thank you so much Linda

Great card. Thanks so much. 😊

[@lostinpaper]

Thanks so much!

[@BarbGhig]

You are so clever, Therese! I love how you used the wreath builder template to create a background...Such a pretty card!!! Thanks so much for sharing another great idea with us...You rock, my friend!

[@lostinpaper]

Thank you so much Barb!

[@marieduncan8746]

Gorgeous card!

[@lostinpaper]

Thank you Marie

[@TheAjjupiter]

I need to play with my wreath builder more.. I love this card, because of the animals. So cute and unexpected!

[@lostinpaper]

I love how they are hidden in the background too.

[@linlen4866]

Definitely a squirrel. I have ten running around my back yard right now. Opposum don't have fluffy tails. Absolutely love your card.

[@lostinpaper]

hahaha, sounds like you have a very busy and very cute backyard!

[@ShawninAZ]

I love this take on the wreath builder, you are so amazing!

[@lostinpaper]

Thank you so much!

[@lisaainscough2465]

Wow, beautiful card. Love all your tips. I marked my paper because it never occurred to me to think square or diamond! This template is really addictive and helps to mass produce fast. Cheers Lisa

[@lostinpaper]

I think you may be cleverer than me, I wouldn't have thought to mark my paper... at least then you know you would get it right. Hope you have a wonderful and crafty day!

[@norinemueller4588]

So very pretty

[@lostinpaper]

Thank you Norine

[@farrangel1]

I love how you used the wreath builder to create a background with that central focal point - I would never have thought of that - genius! I think it’s a squirrel 😊. Such a cute card Therese!

[@lostinpaper]

A squirrel? we don't have them here, but possoms yes... Thanks so much for your lovely visit, Hugs Therese

[@farrangel1]

lostinpaper - lol I’m in Melbourne Therese - it would be cute to have squirrels in Australia though wouldn’t it? I have seen them whilst travelling in the UK - so small, smaller than I thought they’d be - lol. Possum would be the closest comparable Aussie critter for sure!!! 😘

[@maggiebrinkley4760]

Late to the party here, but I've asked for the Gina K wreathbuilder template for Christmas (and I know my son is buying it for me, hee hee!) so I've been watching videos to get ahead of the game. I love your videos, you explain everything so beautifully, and I love your voice, too! Thanks for so much inspiration! X

[@francesarhipoff2864]

Beautiful card, love these templates I got them for Christmas. Hero Arts have some beautiful flower stamp sets that are small

[@lostinpaper]

I must check out the HA sets (I am sure I 'need' more flower sets and I am sure my husband agrees lol). Thanks for the idea!

[@jeannebeam3042]

Pretty card! Thanks for sharing your technique on using the wreath builder. I have the set from Gina K and I love it. Now I can make a background with it. ❤️

[@lostinpaper]

I had such fun adding my own details with the template, it's a great tool! Hope you have fun making a unique background.

[@maxinemann2490]

Love this card. You're right about it being fun. When I received my wreath builder stencils, I made about a dozen cards! As for the critter, I'm going to say fox because the nose is pointed , not a 'possum as the tail is fluffy and 'possums have hairless tails.

[@lostinpaper]

I think these templates are a little addictive by the sound of it lol. And I have had some wonderful conversations about the critter, it's probably about half and half, squirrel v's fox at the moment. I probably was thinking possom because we have a breed here in Australia called the Brush Tail Possom which has a fluffy tail. Thanks so much for your lovely comments

[@deewilkes4727]

Love your card Therese. I bought the template starter set and a couple of the Wreath Builder stamp sets before Christmas but haven’t used them yet. Thanks so much for the creative inspiration. Not really in the mood for wreaths at the moment. Using sweet little creatures in addition to the flowers is such a cool idea and it made me smile when I noticed them, because I didn’t expect to see them. Thank you.

[@lostinpaper]

I seriously had so much fun putting this card together and can't wait to try out some more ideas!

[@daisyandpadme]

I love the wreath builder and I play with it often. I believe it's a fox, just my opinion. I really like how you mixed flowers with critters, so cute!

[@lostinpaper]

Many have said they think it's a fox too. Thanks so much for letting me know!

[@joycespooner6817]

Such a pretty card, love the critters in it and think maybe a fox but could be a possum if you want it to be.

[@lostinpaper]

hahaha, I actually think you may be right, it could be anything you want, it's cute enough lol. Thanks so much for your lovely visit today!

[@LittleLaneCraftswithRachel]

Love your card and it's perfectly timed because I've been wondering how best to make a background style wreath with the template. Very informative and your colouring is inspirational. Can't wait for the next video already! Sending crafty hugs from Scotland x

[@lostinpaper]

I must have made it just for you then, so happy I could help out. Crafty hugs, Therese

[@pricreated]

Oh how cute... The critters look adorable on your card...I feel really inspired now..These stencils have been sitting on my desk for more than a month now!!

[@lostinpaper]

I can't wait to see what you make! Have fun my friend

[@sallycain3716]

I have just bought the templates as like you I wanted to try doing more than wreaths. So this is so helpful!

[@lostinpaper]

Thanks so much Sally, I know you will make them shine!

[@lisapetrella3976]

Such a beautiful and whimsical card! I don't have that wreath builder template yet, but now it's definitely going on the wish list :)

[@lostinpaper]

They really are so much fun!

[@wendy8184]

I'm thinking a fox. Great card!

[@lostinpaper]

ooh, you may be just right!

[@traceylandt9026]

Lovely card Therese! I’m thinking a squirrel, as possums are only here in Australia. Great ideas for the wreath builder template. Thank you for aharing T x

[@lostinpaper]

Apparently there are Opossoms in the US but they sound quite different, some people are thinking a fox... I am so not sure now lol.

[@SherriC88]

Love this!!! I have been on the fence about the weather builder.. not anymore!! My vote is it's a squirrel, a opossum has a long skinny tail

[@lostinpaper]

A squirrel it is then, though some are telling me a fox? lol.

[@SherriC88]

@@lostinpaper lol I don't think it's a fox.. because of his tail...a fox usually has the white tip drawn in..you know what I mean...but either would be super cute...I love your cards..and I think your the first ive seen do some critters in the wreath builder..I am hooked and going to put it I my cart!!

[@lostinpaper]

@@SherriC88 Yes, you are right, the fox does usually have the 'white' tip on it's tail!

[@SherriC88]

@@lostinpaper lol these are just some of the think I think about when trying to figure out what the critter is...lol but he would be cute how ever you coloured him!

[@lizford2498]

Great non-wreathy card! I think it is a 🦊 and not an opossum. But not sure. Cute critter either way. Always fun and great to hear your voice!

[@lostinpaper]

Thanks so much Liz, I would think that the end vote would be about half fox, many were saying squirrel too, maybe I need to ask Flora & Fauna lol.

[@DaisyRae999]

Gorgeous card Therese :)

[@lostinpaper]

Thank you so very much

[@cathyb2281]

Love this card tfs

[@lostinpaper]

Thanks so much Cathy

[@sallystapleton787]

I love that wreath builder too Therese, I’m waiting for the larger set that has just been released to be available in England. I will definitely have a go at making it less wreathy lol xx

[@lostinpaper]

Do you know if you need the largest MISTI for the 'larger' one, the one I saw in the videos from Creativation looked like it was massive, which would be so wonderful, but alas I only have the regular sized MISTI... do I need something else? Please tell me Yes!

[@deborahanne9793]

Yes, you need the largest Misti for Gina K large Wreath Builder.

[@sallystapleton787]

lostinpaper yes you do need a larger stamp positioner but I do have the stamp platform as well as the misti... what I do like about Tim’s platform is that two sides are open so you can use larger cards... seeing that you are always making me buy extra supplies I think you should get this tool and templates.....lol xx

[@YvesGeorgeSanchez]

I like how it's like a vignette of images instead of a wreath.

[@lostinpaper]

Yes, it was fun to do and I hope to try out some more very soon!

[@lisamoline7474]

I'm pretty sure I got my twine on a card that looks like that at Walmart in the jewelry making section. Also beautiful card!!

[@lostinpaper]

That sounds perfect, I wonder why it would be in the jewellery section?

[@lisamoline7474]

I think it is used also in jewelry making.

[@Noniof3]

Very pretty card! Love the Gina K template. BTW, An opossum has a long skinny hairless tail.

[@lostinpaper]

Sounds like your possoms are quite different to ours, in Australia they have fur on their tails and can get quite fluffy. But I do think this tail looks quite different, kind of fox like to me lol. Glad to hear that you enjoy the template too, I can't wait to try it out some more.

[@shellyp8731]

I just love this wreath builder template! But, be warned, it's addicting! But, oh so fun and relaxing! You can do sooooo many things with it! And, can use the stamp sets you already own! I highly recommend it! And, Therese, your card is beautiful...and how clever of you to mix flowers and critters! So creative! 💛🦊 I don't know...I thought it was a fox too...or maybe a squirrel? It'll be fun to read what others think. 🤗

[@lostinpaper]

ooh yes, it's a true debate... maybe I 'need' to ask Flora & Fauna lol. I am thinking you are right about the template too, I already feel like I need to try some other ideas out already!

[@audreyshaw2463]

Great card, I think it's a fox, reminds me of a puppet "character" over here called "Basil Brush" back in the day!! I'm going to try and find a supplier over here for those stencils ;o)

[@lostinpaper]

ooh, I remember Basil Brush! And yes, I agree he does look like him lol.

[@kimlyne9700]

I will be coming to Melbourne in June, are there any crafty things that I can only get in Australia?

[@lostinpaper]

If you are coming from the US then I think you will find most things here are from there... The Paper Roses stamp company I noticed is now available at SSS and there is another company called Uniquely Creative and they have some sweet stuff, but do a lot of kits too. I don't know if they have a store front but I think they are located in Victoria. If I think of anything else I will let you know. Why June? You do know it is Winter then right? lol.

[@kimlyne9700]

My husband was born down there so we are bringing our kids (5 of them!) to see where he is from. My two oldest can’t miss two weeks of school so we are coming as soon as school is out. I know it’s not ideal, but coming from Utah it will probably not be as cold as we are used to.

[@zelda1963may]

Hi, do you have a Riot Art near you? I saw that twine there at Christmas time... tfs :)

[@lostinpaper]

Yes indeed, that might be where I even originally bought it from I truly can't remember lol. Obviously I may have 'too much' stuff, but is there ever really such a thing lol.

[@Livinglifeover60]

My hobby lobby has this twine

[@lostinpaper]

Sadly we don't have hobby lobby or Joann's here in Australia, but I was sent a link to Riot Art which does stock it which is fabulous. Thanks for your comment, this will definitely help for those in the US. Hope you have a great and crafty day, Therese

[@MsJet1]

It's a squirrel. Possums have a skinny tail. :)

[@lostinpaper]

Thanks so much, I must google what an Opossom looks like, we have a species called Brush Tail Possoms here in Australia and their tail is quite fluffy, but from what others have told me the Opossoms tail is very thin with no fur? It's fun to hear what every body thinks and that it wasn't just me that wasn't sure lol. So happy you took the time to comment, Crafty hugs, Therese

[@TheresaJollyLee]

Definitely not an opossum - it has a fox or squirrel tail. I think it’s a squirrel, because it’s ears are rather small.i love my Gina K Wreath Builder, but haven’t used it lately. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@lostinpaper]

Initially I thought it was a fox, but then the face didn't look quite like one.... Maybe a squirrel then! I can't wait to do some more 'wreath' building it is a fun tool!

[@kirriesummers5219]

He is not a possum. Their tails are more like a rat's, naked pinkish. Having said that, his face is possum. Interesting. I have made my own wreath builder and haven't used it.. I love this card. It u5s so pretty. 💖🇨🇦🥰

[@lostinpaper]

Our possums have 'brush' tails, they can be quite fluffy... but they also look different in the face to the ones that I've seen in other countries. Wreath building is fun, hope you get a chance to try yours out!

[@kirriesummers5219]

@@lostinpaper We didn't have any possums in Canada but they are slowly making their way up here. The only ones I've seen did not have the brush tails like yours. Sorry, I didn't check it out before responding. I will try to do better. 🥴

[@lostinpaper]

@@kirriesummers5219 Not at all, I wouldn't have expected you to know that my friend, sending hugs your way!
