Summer mini wreath and some exciting news!!!!!!

Hi everyone,
I hope you are all ok?  Sorry I haven't been around for a while but I've had lots to do and am getting ready to start back to work after being off for quite a while. Its a bit daunting but I'm looking forward to it as well.  As you know the Summer Mini launched on the first of this month and, if you're lucky enough to have a copy, then you would have seen the brilliant scoreboard or watched the video in my previous post.  Well I have been playing with this over the last few days and decided to decorate a polystyrene circle to create a wreath and this is the end result .....

As you can see I have used a lot of new products from the Summer Mini.  To start with I have used the scoreboard and Twitterpated papers for the rosettes.  The 3 large ribbon topped rosettes were made using the double sided sticky paper from the main catalogue and the pleated satin ribbon.  The colours I used were Riding Hood Red, Blushing Bride and Baja Breeze.  I've done a little bit of spirelli by punching out one of the flowers using the Boho Blossom punch and Bakers twine in Pool Party.  I have also used adhesive Rhinestones, Pearls, flower brads and buttons from the main catalogue. The wreath was covered using black and white Striped Grosgain ribbon.  I stuck the rosettes onto the wreath using various adhesives and small pins.  The bigshot Circles die was used to cut the sticky sheets and card that held the rosettes together.
