A simple directions how I made it. This is the back of the box. I cut into half I'll use the other half for another :)
I cut into circle. Save the circle cut out for future project...
I wrapped with white crepe paper then added the ruffles around it (yellow crepe paper).
Added the twisted pink tissue paper then cut the lavender ribbon and made a small loop then attached like this in the picture below.
I crocheted the light green fussy yarn then attached on top of the lavender ribbon and added the blue pearl & bead.
Finally, I added the 2 pink butterflies, purple beads and my handmade pleated flower. Here my finished spring wreath.

Cards and other projects
Happy monday to all! Hope everyone have a wonderful week. Today I want to share some of my cards and more altered projects.
All the cute images are from my friend Linda , thank you so much. The sentiment stamp is from my other friend Denise. Thank you so much!
My first time to do some heat embossing. I know it doesn't look good but it's my first time, again I need more practice.
Here are some flowers that I made from pattern papers, ribbons and buttons. I used to make the paper flowers when I was in elementary but we just used the construcction paper.
Angela's first day of school today. She's so excited and happy when she saw her friend from preschool. This photo taken in the front before she went to school.
Just want to share some more of my altered projects for Angela's school. Yes, I love to recycle! This is a cover from the box of paper copy. I covered it with my old scrap papers and added her name and some cut out flowers. This is one from the list of Angela's school supplies. She'll use it as a drawer under her table.
This is the inside. Thank you Denise, I've been using the papers that you gave me.Posted by Rleen at 7:04 PM 5 comments
