Ok
Ladies.........by far this is my most favorite thing that I have created this week....yes, its the only thing that I created this week, but good golly..... I love it!! I finally made one. And let me just tell you, last night when I finished it and I was talking picture so that I could post it and all my pictures where HORRIBLE! I went to bed and I was so bummed that I had to wait until I got home from work to post it. So I turned on tinker bell threw the girls in front of the TV gave them some cookies and milk and here I am. So lets get to it already...... I'm dying to show you.
Here are my supplies, foam wreath, (left over from Eastons
Birthday wreath) a book from the dollar store, a scallop punch and of course DIET COKE.
Basically all that you do is punch out a ton of scallop circles from the book and then hot glue them to your base. I used a maker to fold the paper over and then glued it to the base
once my wreath was all done, i thought it was kinda small. I took the frame that I have had forever from Ikea, that everyone has and just glued some paper on the insert of the frame. well actually my wonderful hubby did this part, I could not get the paper straight and it was really bugging him.
it still needed something..... so I made a "spooky" little banner. I made paper lollies stamp the letters on different paper and then attached those with some toole
to the lollies. I attached the lollies together with a needle and thread.
added some more "spookyness
"
and WA-LA!! here it is.........................
I hope you love it as much as I do.
THANKS FOR LOOKING!!!
