Christmas crafts Home decorations Papercrafter Techniques
Issue 65 of PaperCrafter was our Christmas extravaganza, which included a fantastic wreath that our in-house Corinne Bradd devised to see in the season. It’s the perfect project for using up odd scraps of papers or alternatively, showing off your favourite ones!
Cardboard, Gold card, Patterned papers, Star punch or die, Circle punch, Stapler, Foam pads
We had such a fabulous response to this project, so we’ve put it online for those who might have missed it. Don’t forget to share your makes with us over on our Facebook page, where you can enter our monthly #CraftChallenge. You can win one of our famous goodie bags!

• Cut a 20cm circle from cardboard and gold card and use a craft knife to cut 12cm circles from the middle of each. Glue together
• Cut several strips of patterned paper, 1.5cm by 10cm. Bend into loops and glue
• Staple a row of loops around the outside of the ring
• Fix a second ring of loops inside the first, spacing them between the first ring
• Add a final row of loops in the same way to completely cover the base ring
• Use punches or a die-cutting machine to cut two sizes of stars and circles from leftover paper
• Layer the stars and circles together with foam pads to create 3D motifs
• Place the star motifs around the inside of the ring using stacks of foam pads
• Punch tiny stars from leftover gold card and glue to a few of the loops around the ring
