Bigz Bow Die Christmas Wreath

I saw a video on how to make this wreath on Stampin' Connection, a place where Stampin' Up! demonstrators connect with each other, blog, and share.  Janet Wakeland shared how to make this wreath using the SU Bigz Bow Die.  You can find her blog  Here.  Also, if you Google her name, you will see many beautiful wreaths she has made.  This die is on sale until Monday, August 4, 2014, and at a savings of 25% off catalog price, who can resist, right? 

If you cannot find Janet's video or directions, please leave a comment below, or email me, and I will do my best to send written directions.  If I receive requests, I will offer a wreath-making technique class in September.

The die makes bows, of course, (or why would it be called a bow die), in two sizes in a jiffy.  Need a bow for a birthday present, just grab your Big Shot and your Gift Bow Bigz die, and within minutes your good-to-go.  The die can be found on Page 233 of SU's 2014-15 catalog, item # 129977, $32.95. ($24.71 until August 4, 2014).

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, and faithful in prayer.  Romans 12:12
