Download + Print

Click the logo at the end of the post and download the diamond shape printable files. I’m sharing two sizes with you:

• 8″ diamond to be printed on an 8.5″ x 11″ sheet of photo paper
• 11″ diamond to be printed on a 12″x12″ or 13″ x19″ sheet of photo paper

The fabulous Canon iP8720 Crafting Printer is the only large format, consumer printer that can print up to 13″ x 19″! Which is why it’s my favorite!

Trim

Using scissors, a paper trimmer or rotary blade and cutting mat, cut out your diamond.

Cardboard Diamond

Next, using a scrap piece of cardboard, trace and cut out a matching diamond. But, make it about 1/4″ smaller than the printed diamond when you cut it out. For this step, it’s easiest to use a rotary blade and cutting mat.

Wrap The Wreath Form

Wrap the “ring” with your choice of ribbon! Here I’m using three different shades of gorgeous silk ribbon, but you can use any type you’d like. Secure the ribbon end to the foam form with a wreath pin.

Wrap, Wrap, Wrap

Continue to wrap the foam form with ribbon until fully covered. Cut and fold the end under itself and secure to the backside of the form using two wreath pins.

Add The Cardboard

Place the cardboard diamond where you’d like it on the “ring” and then secure it using two or three wreath pins.

Add The Sparkly Diamond

Using your favorite scrapbooking adhesive, add your printed diamond to the cardboard – and you’re done!

Large And In Charge

The large format of the Canon iP8720 is every creative gals dream come true! The projects you can accomplish with this fabulous machine are endless with the 13″x19″ size capability!

Bridal Decor Made Easy

These simple + chic handmade rings are going to look amazing no matter where you choose to put them! Hanging from the front door, on the back of the brides chair, as a centerpiece, possibly even on the gift table!
