Add the two large liners under the minis. Pinch, twist, and crinkle the bottom of the liners to start forming your flower shape. Apply hot glue on the spiral (the top of the wire). Insert the end of the wire through the three mini liners. You can add more liners for a more voluminous flower. Add hot glue to the flower sticker and the platform.To make the cupcake-wrapper flowers, repeat the spiral wire technique stated previously with one spiraled wire per flower.Use the screw punch to punch a hole in the center of three mini and two standard cupcake liners. To make the sticker flowers, use pliers to twist the tip of the wire into a spiral and bend the spiral 90 degrees. Cover the wire with floral tape and apply glitter. Attach one wire to an adhesive back of fern and secure with hot glue. Make a flower bouquet next on your crafting to-do list for a beautiful rendition to a typical arrangement.
Finish the anchor with a handmade tassel. Create an anchor for the medallion base-beads, small crystals, or stones on cord add a little extra weight beneath a medallion to keep it from flapping in the breeze. If desired, cut out additional silhouettes from illustrated papers and collage them, overlapping the center circle of the medallion.Ĭreate a hanging loop by attaching a length of metallic cord to the top of the medallion with a brass grommet. You may decide to leave the base as is (see the large gold and small pink medallions) or back it with another piece of paper (see the medium medallion backed with fringed metallic gold paper).Ĭreate the medallion center: Measure the area within your punched circle, then cut a circle of printed paper to fit within it adhere the medallion center to the punched circle. Start with a punched circle as your base, embellishing as desired.

Twist crepe strips at the center, and tie in knots along tail about 8 inches apart. To create the tail, cut a long length of twine, and cut crepe paper into 4-by-1.5-inch strips. Poke a small hole through the paper where the dowels intersect thread the twine through for hanging. Brush glue on smaller pieces of paper, and adhere them over the dowels to larger piece of paper at each of the four corners let dry.Ĭut another piece of twine to the desired length for hanging the kite. Place dowels on back side of one piece of paper (use the 19-inch dowel for the vertical, and the 16-inch one for the horizontal). Cross dowels lash together by wrapping and tying twine around the point where they intersect. Cut dowel into one 19-inch piece and one 16-inch piece. The washi tape and acrylic paint will add extra flair to the kite paper to make this project come alive.īegin by tracing the template onto decorative paper and cutting it out.
