St. Patty Wreath

Remember a while ago when I featured the Rose Wreath from I'm a Yarner - I LOVED it and planned on making a pink version for Valentine's Day  - well, like many projects it just didn't get done.  But look:
 Then the other day my aunt showed up to craft with this scrapbook cutter thing that cut spirals - I immediately thought of the paper rosettes and making a wreath.  Since the next holiday coming up was St. Patrick's Day, I dug out all the green paper I had and cut it all with her mat thing - so easy!  I then wrapped a cardboard circle in green fabric (err, green sheet remnant - whatever) and hot glued on the flowers.  So fun!

Sometimes I get so excited to take pictures and show off my creations that I don't cut threads/pull of glue strings/etc - just keeping it real.....
