I've sent out six of these cards this Fall and positively no one has noticed it's a wreath made out of Spiders. Either people are not paying attention or the Spider has become an accepted universal symbol of Thanksgiving or an icon of the Fall harvest. I can't tell. But I'd like to state, for the record, it's insanely easy to make.
Supplies: Sizzix Bigz Die #656758, Spider and Spiderweb 3-D by Karen Burniston, The Paper Co. cardstock, 12x12, paprika, Creative Imaginations Rubber Stamps, Chalk Case Upper Alphabet by Karen Burniston (honestly, it just worked out that way), scrap ribbon and embellishments.
Instructions: Cut spiders out of books and sheet music. Distress some of the spiders to give the wreath depth. Arrange in circular pattern. If necessary trim spider legs in the center to better define the wreath. Attach a bow and wreath trim. Adhere to front of card. Stamp greeting on the inside of the card.
Love these Tara!

This amazes me in its beauty and then makes me giggle like a school girl that it's made out of spiders. YOU ARE SO CLEVER!!! I love this.
