INSTRUCTIONS:

Open a portrait sheet in your print program. Import the wreath flower template and fill with your chosen background. I fitted two flowers on each page.

Print on highest setting.

Turn the printed cardstock over and place it back in the printer.

In your print program, remove the flower template and fill the sheet with your chosen background fill and print on your highest setting.

Continue until you have 12 flower pieces. I made contrasting flowers so I had 6 black fills and 6 orange fills.

Use pinking shears and cut each flower part out.

Open a portrait sheet in your print program. Import the wreath flower center template and fill with your chosen graphic and background.

Print six.

Cut each piece out and glue into a metal lid.

To assemble the wreath:

Wrap the foam wreath with the black ribbon.

Cut a 4" strip of black ribbon. Fold in half and pin or glue to the back top of the wreath for a hanger.

Assemble six flowers by layering 2 flower pieces together.

Pin or glue each set around the wreath.

Glue a decorated lid in the center of each flower.

Pull the petals of the flowers up for depth and dimension.

Pin or glue an orange bow with the black rhinestone adhered to the middle of the bow at the bottom of the wreath.

Cut eight 4" strips of the orange wired ribbon.

Fold each strip in half and twist the folded end into a point.

Pin or glue the twisted end of each strip randomly around and inside the wreath for a fluffy fill.
