How to make this easy paper leaf wreath

Step 1 Trace your dinner plate onto the cardboard and cut out. Cut out an inner circle, leaving about 1.5″ of cardboard all around for the wreath.cardboard cut out wreath shapeStep 2 Cut your leaves: I folded each piece of card stock in half vertically, so I could cut 2 leaves at a time. Draw your leaf onto the card stock and cut them out, or just freehand cut them. I got 4 leaves from each piece of cardstock, so 8 leaves total for each color.folded colored cardtsock and scissors for making a paper leaf wreathStep 3 Add little fringe cuts on the sides of the leaves if you like.piles of paper leaves cut out from cardstockpurple paper leaf from paper leaf craftStep 4 Glue your leaves on with hot glue going 1 row at a time.
