Bows Bows Bows.

Hello today I bring you these simple bows. 


You can make these out of paper. Yes, paper! 
I saw a few of these online. I decided to give it a whirl and make my own measurements. The snowflake bow I used the same gift wrapping paper I used to wrapped the gift. The two blue ones I used this ribbon I found at Walmart. 

Now on to the measurements: 
4- 8in long piece of ribbon or paper.
2- 6in long piece of ribbon or paper
1- 3in long piece of ribbon or paper

Of course if you want a bigger bow then your measurement will increase. 








So the materials you need are the following:
Ribbon or paper
a stapler or tape
Double sided tape (Use this at the end for the center of the bow to adhere to the bow)

Star ornament

Hello once again,

Its taken me a few days to come back and make another post, but here it goes. I made a star ornament. I saw this on a target sales ad and I was like maybe I can try to make one of my own and see how it comes out. It came out very nice and looks pretty awesome hanging on the Christmas tree. 


Here are a couple of pictures of the ornament. 



On this one I decided to run it though the cuttlebug.

Materials used:
Cricut cartridge- My Quiet Book
Recollections cardstock
Hot glue gun

Christmas Angel

Hello,

Two years ago I was playing with my nylon stash and this idea came to mind to make this angel and it was awesome. The first big one I made was a green one, this is a lavender color. 


This is the big one I did 2 years ago. I did this one to use at the top of my tree. 

This one is the smaller version I did for an ornament.


Here is to the return of  the Christmas angel in lavender. 

Now if you want to make your own, here are the instructions to do this beautiful angel. If you have further questions you can leave a comment. These are my instructions http://newsheer.com/artcraft_angel.php
