Today I am using the Grateful Leaves Stamp and Die Combo! I love this set! I was inspired to make some home decor instead of cards actually and thought to myself I may as well! I think stamps make fabulous cards but being able to make other stuff like home decor is a great idea! I am starting with what else but a wreath!!
I stamped with Hero Arts shadow inks: butter ball, red royal, cup o'joe, and just rite the leaves and die cut them. Placed them on a brown twine yarn wrapped wreath. Here's a close up of the leaves:
And I made another home decor project perfect for fall:
I made a fall garland by gluing more leaves on some twine! (I used hot glue it works the best) Looking around my house I decided the best place to put this twine was on this mirror. I realize I should hang the fall wreath than the garland but this paper wreath is here to stay on this mirror (after falling and breaking several times I've finally adhered it right to the mirror and it won't be moving! LOL)
And that's it from me! I hope I've inspired you! The next stop along the hop is to Barb! Thank you so much for stopping by! I don't share too much here anymore but I do on my instagram page Anita Rex Designs and via facebook anitarexdesigns.facebook.com

I enjoy tiny projects and the garland is really neat!
Anita! I love that you're blogging today! LOVE all of your fabulous projects!
Love your wreath and garland. Think I will give this a try.
Great wreaths and garland! I laughed when you said your wreath was "there to stay"! I have had things like that happen to me and they ended up permanently STUCK to something as well. After a few times you are determined to MAKE it stick...LOL
They are just beautiful!
I really like both of your projects. I have been thinking of making a fall garland myself. Thanks for the inspiration and your wonderful talent.

Love the leaf garland. I always have
something on my front door and this would
be a good fall decoration. Wrap it around
the window and then put your wreath in the
middle.
fantastic idea.
