This is for the ...you win some you loose some category.
DP is BasicGrey Archiver for Archivers. The wreath was created with my granddaughter's Spirograph. Colored in with Conte' Pastels. Prima flowers and brads.
I'm not happy with it - but I may make another attempt! Who knows...maybe Sprirographs are better left in the hands of children!
Martha Stewart branches punch, prima flowers,flower brads. I added liquid applique "berries" and re-uploaded.

I don't think this is bad at all!! Using the spirograph was so creative--I didn't even notice until I read your description! You colored it so well, matching the colors in the DP, that it looked to me like a lovely stamp!! (And that's even more true looking at the thumbnail--looks like it was meant to be a wreath!!). Lovely work decorating your wreath with the die cuts, primas, and brads. Overall, I think this is a very strong effort (even if it isn't what you intended)--I know it will make the day of its recipient!!

I agree this is really great. I would have never thought to use a spirograph to make a wreath. It is pure cleverness. I like the paper too. I have not seen this. Great job.. You need to make more.
