ah the difference a new punch makes... I am convinced my original punch is defective. So, the new one arrived today and I was able to quickly punch more branches to do this wreath and I did have fun doing it too. Thanks for this tutorial Kittie! & tfl. I did use a 2" ( on the outside edge) circle for this wreath so, when it was done being built it was larger than both of my window dies I own so, I used the wood grain paper to give it that door look. tfl. There are a couple extra views of this card on the blog here.

Your wreath is beautiful! I so want to try making this, but I am afraid my punch would bit the dust too!

Wow, wow, wow!!!! Stacy everything about this is fabulous. I love the rustic shabby chic feel to it. Pinned and faved chickie.
I think Martha Stewart purposely makes half of her punches to break, knowing we will fall in love with them and want to replace it. She doubles her money LOL.
