Felt Flower #1:

Step 1: Cut Felt

Begin by cutting out 5-6 circles of felt. I just eyeballed the shape, they don't need to be too precise.

Felt Flower #2:

Begin by cutting a strip of yellow felt between 1/2 and one inch wide. Then cut a row of fringe down one edge of the felt. Then add a little hot glue and roll up the entire strip in a spiral, making a fringy center. 

Then cut petals out of red felt to place around the yellow center.

Felt Flower #3:

Begin by cutting little tear-drop or petal shapes out of blue felt. Cut the wire about 2 inches long. Then hot glue the wire to the petal and squeeze them together to cover the wire. These make a filler, sort of eucalyptus or little baby breath sprigs.

The final flower is just petal shapes cut from felt and glued around a felt ball. It's simple and fabulous.

Now arrange the flowers on the wood canvas. Add some leaves and some holly berries. Then hot glue everything in place. Cut a felt ball in half to glue the snowflake on the board and give it some lift.
