Here’s a fun project to dress up your Valentine table.
These are made with the new Raspberry Tart DSP (front two) and a retired Real Red DSP (back one.) Cut a strip of DSP 2″ x 12 and use your scallop edge punch to punch the long edge. Score between each scallop and accordion fold. Overlap the short edges to made a circle and collapse it into a flower – use a pop up glue dot in the center to hold it in place. Stamp 2 hearts from A Happy Heart and adhere one on each side of your flower. Insert a bamboo skewer (found at the grocery store) pointed end towards the center. I used Crystal Effects to attach it.
Put a small piece of Styrofoam into the little bucket – or any small container – and push the skewer into the Styrofoam. Add some Crystal Effects to anchor it down. Tie some organdy ribbon around the skewer (wish I had the new white organdy to show you – it looks soooo pretty in the catalog!)
I didn’t have any “shred” to finish the bucket so I cut a 2″ circle, made a hole in the center with my anywhere hole punch and slit the circle to the center. Shred would look better but this was a quick cover! Enjoy! Hugs, Fran
What a cute idea! You are incredibly talented!
These are too cute for words. I love them.
Love this idea and would love to make some, but I am having trouble with the directions and maybe my mind is in a fog this morning I am having trouble with the punching. My scallops are up side down on the 2 x 12 and if I punch all the way through the scallops are not attached, what am I doing wrong? I have been staring at the paper and instructions for the last 10 minutes Help!
These are wonderful. Thanks for sharing your projects and giving instructions!!
