Teresa Collins eBosser 'In Time for the Holidays' Blog Hop! Garland Tutorial by: Sesil Cratin


Sesil here for the Craftwell and Teresa Collins Blog Hop!  I am so excited to be part of this amazing hop again.  As some of you know I have a love for garlands.  I am starting decorate the house for the holidays and thought I would share this quick and easy garland tutorial. 


First I used vellum with the Decor Circles.  I used this pattern because of the circles and the patter would go nice with the paper design and the general shape of my garland.

 Next I punched out some circles from the vellum and the pattern paper.  I used Teresa Collins Designs Santa's List Chevron Paper Item #s11006. Stacked the circles with the pattern paper and the vellum. I used 3 pattern pieces and 2 vellum pieces to create the stack.


Then I took each stack and ran it through my sewing machine.  I do pull the thread between the stacks.


This is the amount of space I leave between the stacks. 


Now it is time to decorate the spaces between the garland.  I take an adhesive dot and add it to the back of a flat backed rhinestone. 


Then I sandwich the rhinestones together on the thread of the garland. 


Finally I open the stacks of the paper and create the 3D ornament piece on the garland.


Now just add the garland to your tree or other holiday decorations. 



Thank you for letting me share my tutorial with you today.  Make sure to leave a comment to enter to win a Teresa Collins eBosser from Craftwell.

  9. these are really cute and so easy. I wish I had the nerve to do some stitching on paper. It would probably help if the sewing machine was in reach. It got moved to the back of the table so I'd have lots of room for my cardmaking.

  11. My 13 year old daughter is so into decorating and celebrating the magic of Christmas this year. We had son who died 3 years ago and our grief consumed us all. I am delighted to see the sparkle back in her eyes and wanting to celebrate this blessed season again. I would love to make this with her for her room.
