Welcome to Christmas in July – the month of good intentions of getting ahead of the festive crazies and prepare for a magical and peaceful time during the holidays. And with all the gorgeous Christmas Kaisercraft releases we can expect this year, it sure is going to be a glitzy affair! One that I am really excited about.
I love the festive season mostly for its wreaths. Yes I am that girl that can have a million wreaths around the house all years long and still love them come Christmas time. So what better way than to create a little festive magic with a miniature wreath on a pennant that can welcome guests at the front door or be used on the fire place, heck anywhere that something can hang – this peaceful pennant can bring good cheer to all who sees it.
I started off by using the beautiful Silent Night Christmas paper to create a pennant base. Then added paper strips and punched borders to complete the look. On top of the pennant is a cut out Santa, more paper strips and a beautiful pennant created from the patterned papers and collectables pack.
-
Step 1
Punch a selection of leaves from the Kaisercraft Silent Night paper.
-
Step 2
On a pre-made circle element, add a circle of Tombow Mono Multi adhesive and place the leaves in a circle all around it. I used two different patterns and shades of green of leaves to create interest.
-
Step 3
Add Tape Wormz foam tape to the back of another circle element from the collection pack.
-
Step 4
Adhere the element over the leaves on the base element. The dimension gives the wreath a beautiful 3D look.
-
Step 5
Create the pennant from a base paper. Add a strip of high tack tape to the top of the pennant.
-
Step 6
Adhere a strip of ribbon to the tape for a really permanent hold.
I hope that you’ve enjoyed the first of the Christmas in July projects that will be running over the next month.

Thank you everyone!
Where can I get the leaf punch used in the peace pennant? I am in Knysna.
Gorgeous Jowilna. Also love wreaths for any occassion
Hi Lesley, The punch I used is a Martha Stewart punch. I bought it a few years ago. We don’t currently have a leaf punch with The Wholesaler so I cheated and used the one I had in my stash! I suggest you check on-line to find a similar leaf punch. I hope this helps. regards Jowilna
Thank you Philippa – what’s not to love about a pretty wreath right? Hugs Jowilna
