I was looking at my front door the other day and I realized that it was bare so I wanted to make another wreath. I thought it would be a great idea to use the designer series paper from this year's sale-a-bration catalog.
(The brads and designer series papers I used to make my wreath are both current Sale-a-brations items).
I made these wreaths before, but this time I used the new Stampin' Up! Designer Rosette Bigz XL Die. It was much quicker using the die to make the rosettes rather than cutting the paper myself and scoring each line.
I decided to make this wreath bigger (I wanted to be able to see it from the street) and so I ended up using the entire pack of dsp. This is a large wreath- it's about 20" round.
For more details about my wreath (and more photos) please see my blog post found here:

Stunning! How do you keep it dry? That's too beautiful to be melted away in a spring shower or do you live in one of those Camelot areas where you can command the weather?

Hi Peg,
Ha....LOL. Nope, I only wish I could control the rain and snowy weather. Actually (and I should have mentioned this) I have a full length glass storm door so my wreath stays nice and dry. If I didn't have a storm door I wouldn't be able to put my wreaths on my front door.
