Pine Cone Wreath

A friend of mine showed me a Pine Cone wreath she had made for her senior's group.  It was absolutely huge!  But gorgeous!  So guess what - I wanted to make one as well, but not quite that big.
I used retired Autumn paper to make my wreath.

I started out by cutting the designer paper into squares - 4", 3 1/2", and 3" and forming them into tubes.  These were hot glued to a base circle.

There are a lot of tutorials out there if you don't know how to make one.

The flower in the center was made using various sizes of scallop circle punches and framelts.
