If you have a gorgeous wreath that you can use for any occasion, but like to gussy it up during the holidays, then here is a little Easter plaque to change the look of your wreath during the Lent season.

Supplies:

Paint the oval portion of the Art Part with Picket Fence. Let Dry.

Lay the Splotches Stencil on top, and ink in the circles with various colors of Archival Ink.

Cover the plaque with Glue N Seal to seal in the color.

Paint over each of the letters using a different Distress Paint. Let dry, and then ink over the edges of the letters with Tree Branch to give a vintage look. Add Glossy Accents over the letters to shine them up.

Add a little bit of glue stick over the circles on the plaque. Lay a gold colored Foil Sheet on top, and use your fingernail or a pointy tool to make spirals. Lift the Foil Sheet up and you should have shiny, foiled spirals.

Paint over two pieces of trim from the sticker sheet with Broken China. Let dry, and adhere these to the plaque on top and bottom in two strips. Trim off the excess. Use a white pen to outline the circles and the trim.
