Susan Tierney-Cockburn's dies can be used for so many beautiful projects. I think we all love the gorgeous colors of Fall leaves. I knew Susan's Garden Woodland Leaves would be beautiful on a wreath for my home. All of the leaves in the set were die cut using white card stock then colored with Distress Inks. I used a hot glue gun to attach them to a Styrofoam wreath. For fillers, I used Elizabeth Craft Curvy Leaves and the ECD Berry Branch. For the berries, I used Viva Orange Paper Pen. The pretty flowers were created with the new Susan's Garden Notes - Chrysanthemum dies. For additional Fall foliage, I collected acorns that recently fell from a tree in our neighborhood. A large bow was made with a piece of ribbon from my stash.

Beautiful project!
You are so amazingly talented Selma. What a gorgeous creation to hang on your wall. Did you use a green flat styrofoam circle for this project & may I ask what kind of glue gun you use? I can't seem to find one that doesn't continusly leak all over the place ... Do you use a large one or just the mini glue gun. Thanks, Janie
Beautiful! It looks labor intensive with all the pretty flowers but well worth the effort!
Gorgeous wreath!
I know you were worried about the leaves showing up in the photo. Looks lovely.

Awh Selma, it is truly magnificent. Once again I bow to your patience, it must the secret and prime requirement of a dedicated and talented artist. I have been calling you the 'Flower Queen', how would you like 'Wonder Woman' instead?

Just stunning Selma! An absolute WOW project!!
Lovely, lovely. Do you have a tutorial on how you color, create the leaves or a listing of the distress colors used in both the leaves and flowers. For those of us beginners that would be very helpful I have ordered the woodland leaves but have not been able to locate the chrysanthemum die.
Where do you post replies to questions asked? I have watched many of your tutorials and have found them very detailed and informative. Thank you for sharing and responding.
Susie I can do a tutorial on how I colored the Fall leaves next week on my blog. Both the Fall Leaves and Chrysanthemum dies can be purchased from Elizabeth Craft Designs very soon. I will announce the new release as soon as it is available.
