The Harvest Wreath instructions appear in this month's issue of Scrapbooking & Beyond.
1) Cut cardstock into 1 1/2" X 2" and 2 1/2" X 3" rectangles.
2) Soak the rectangles in a bowl of water for a few minutes.
3) Crumple and gently wring rectangles.
4) Lay flat on paper towels to dry completely overnight.
5) When rectagles are dry, cut assorted-size leaf shapes.
6) Dab sponge into brown ink, then antique surface and outside edges of each leaf.
7) Arrange leaves onto wreath form.
This took several hours to complete, but I was able to watch a NASCAR race and Sunday Morning while I was crafting. The pictures were taken yesterday at the Cooper's Rock Trout Pond and Reservoir near our home.

Cindy. this is a seriously awesome technique! It reminds me of sewn sating leaves or something and then they way you placed them around the photo like a wreath - that is art!
