Wreath card using my homemade wreath builder

[@illawallaroo]

As I said above, gorgeous card, and so grateful for your DIY template instructions. A teeny request: the background music is very distracting, and comes across on my headphones as really tinny. We don’t need the music: your calm voice and excellent instructions are sufficient!

[@leattaleake8756]

I agree about the music. Quite distracting! Beautiful card and it was nice to see how you made your own template.

[@susanhardy2848]

Thank you illa but I need to apologise as I’ve uploaded a new video with music today but from now on I won’t so thank you for your honest feedback it’s much appreciated 😊

[@susanhardy2848]

Thank you Leatta glad you liked my wreath card but I need to say the card I’ve uploaded today has music but from now on I won’t add it , thank you for your honest feedback 😊

[@tracylee4442]

Yes! The music was distracting. But I learned much from you. I particularly like the metallic edge around; nice finishing touch!

[@susanhardy2848]

I’m glad you liked the tutorial and feel you have learned something new .. I have addressed the music issue and won’t be adding to any of my future tutorials.. thank you for your feedback and happy crafting 😊

[@craftynikki6570]

If you have got a cutting machine - then you can also do this and cut out of stencil plastic to have a permanent wreath builder! I did this using my ScanNCut SDX2250D and created a variety of sizes. Thanks so much for sharing how to do it with dies! 👍

[@susanhardy2848]

I do have a cutting machine Nikki but I’m ashamed to say I hardly use my Scan n cut ! but thank you for your input .. happy crafting 🤣

[@barbarasmith4600]

Thanks for the scan n cut tip !

[@adelebuchanan3649]

This is a beautiful card Susan. I am so happy that you have shown us how to build a wreath, I have all the branch stamps to build one but didn't have a clue how to line it up correctly and walked away in frustration many times. Thank you so much for a great tutorial and just in time for Christmas. Take care x

[@susanhardy2848]

So happy you like the tutorial Adele and I agree it is a beautiful card .. hope you try it soon x

[@janepowell4739]

Hi. A stunning card I love it and will be giving it a go for Christmas. Please can you put a list of what you used and the colours? I am disabled and it would help me enormously. Thank you so much xx

[@katecurrie7499]

What a beautiful, beautiful card Susan, and such an interesting way of making your wreath, going to give that a go. I love it, thank you so much for your inspiration 💖

[@susanhardy2848]

Thank you Kate.. so happy you’re going to give it a try it’s so easy doing it this way .. enjoy your crafting 😊

[@shellyrulli5787]

Beautiful card, Susan! I don't recall seeing a card made with a base like that. Interesting! Thank you for the instructions on how to make a Wreath Builder. That will be handy for cardmakers. I do have some I bought years ago. But now I know how and will inform my cardmaking friends. I didn't care for the background music. Your voice is lovely and sufficient :)

[@susanhardy2848]

Thanks so much Shelley and I’ve addressed the music issue on the last video and have left it off since then .. thank you for your feedback .. happy crafting 😊

[@maryannsomerville3505]

I had never thought of using ‘many stamps’ to make a wreath. Your positioning template is brilliant & the colour choices make for a most elegant card! Most perceptive too for the neuvo drops to pick up the subtle ink colour as well. Real artistry … thanks for your tutorial. Can’t wait to try it. 🦋🌻🩵✨

[@susanhardy2848]

Thank you so much Mary I hope you enjoy making your own version of my card 😊

[@susanhardy2848]

Thank you so much Mary 😊

[@paulawright3704]

What a great idea to use a ruler and pen to make a border around the edge!

[@susanhardy2848]

Thank you happy crafting 😊

[@ebriggs3498]

Absolutely beautiful! The music is great to start out with, but please do a slow fade away so we can hear your voice. The music becomes too obnoxious after a while. Keep at it! You’re doing great! ❤

[@susanhardy2848]

Thank you so much for your feedback and I’ve taken the comments on board about music and going to omit it in future .. happy crafting 😊

[@BerniBernsify]

What a great use of tools we already have ! It's such a lovely wreath. I didn't find the music distracting at all it's barely audible; I don't use headphones. Maybe the other viewers headphones are distorting the sound.

[@susanhardy2848]

Thank you Berni .. happy crafting 😊

Does it take much practice for proper stamp placement to get the best results? I was wondering how you knew where to place the bough stamp to make the circle wreath look so perfect?

[@susanhardy2848]

Hi … no it’s easy just as long as you start with the square orientation as I show you in the video you can place your stamp down and it make the perfect circle .. just have a play with the stamps you have in your stash.. happy crafting 😊
