The wreath is chipboard, covered ina pink spotty paper, with red and pink organza ribbon tied through holes all the way round - with more ribbon to hand the wreath with. The finished wreath was sprayed several times with gold Spray and Sparkle to give it a glittery finish and the varnish makes the paper tougher!
These photos show close-ups of some of the flowers - these are made by layering up individual blooms, a pokey tool is used to shape the petals and roll the spirals in the centres. Some red card candi fill the other centres.
This is a picture of the first wreath i made using the Craftwork Cards Sugarplum Flower and Paper Pad - i have since ordered a second pad as i ran out of flowers!!

Beautiful wreaths, wow! I love all the pretty colors and patterns and elements you used on each of them. I'm stopping in from Dynamic Duos - just wanted to answer your question about the colors. The colors are Stampin' Up! colors, but you can use whatever you have in your stash that is close to the colors listed. Hope you can play along with us! ;-)
