Happy Halloween Wreath | Hey Pumpkin collection | Doodlebug Design Inc

Hi creative friends!

It's time to decorate for Halloween! And what better way to start with a wreath to hang on your front door! I love how all the gorgeous colours are showcased in my wreath from the Doodlebug Design Hey Pumpkin collection! 

To create this wreath I chose nearly all of the papers in the Hey Pumpkin collection and trimmed strips from them all to measure roughly 2 inches x 10 inches. Some papers I did repeat to fill up the wreath. I then took my banner punch and punched the very ends of each end of the paper strips. I chose a polystyrene foam circle that I have had in my stash for ages to glue them all to.

Altogether there are 28 paper strips on my wreath, I was sure to not place similar patterns and colors too close together, arranging them to even out the patterns and colours as much as possible. I slightly overlapped each paper strip to ensure the foam circle was covered. Once all of the paper strip banners were glued in place, I added some black ribbon at the top and tied a bow, I also attached the gorgeous Hey Pumpkin Just Charming Clip and Key Chain to hang down.

When the paper strip banner were all dry, I added a piece of the gorgeous Homespun heavyweight acetate to the back of the wreath. I did have to wait a while for this to dry before I started on the really fun part of embellishing! I added the round October 31 die-cut from the Chit Chat pack to the centre of the acetate also.

I added titles from the Chit Chat pack to the top and bottom of the wreath and some small speech bubbles as well. From the Bits and Pieces pack, I added lots of the floral pieces to the title below and at the top as well. 

The Puffy Stickers in the Hey Pumpkin collection are super cute, I added some floral ones over the top of the die-cut flowers at the bottom, a pumpkin and a spider near the bottom title, some bats to the sides of the wreath and some pumpkin puffys to the top floral piece.

I absolutely LOVE how my wreath turned out and the best thing was it was SO EASY to make! I hope you inspired to create your very own wreath with the Hey Pumpkin collection!

Happy creating!
