Fold these circles equally in all directions. See photo.
Now, position the center of the circle on top of a glue lid and crumple. See photo.
Do this to 3 pcs. to create the lower layers.
For the top layer do the same, but use a pencil tip.

Glue the layers in place.
To make the leaf, fold green pieces of paper into a triangle, twice.
Draw a leaf pattern and cut this out. See photo.
Roll the leaf tips backwards with a pencil or any stick.
Glue it onto the bottom of the flower.

Make as many as you want depending on the size of your wreath.
Draw circles onto the cardboard. The smaller circle should be in the center of the bigger one. Then cut. See attached photo.
Now, arrange the paper carnations around the circle. Secure with double sided tape.
Make additional leaves and place in every gap between the flowers if you want. (optional)
