Today I wanted to share something other than a card, this project is featured on the Right At Home blog today. I am always
looking for ways to stretch my stamps and dies as I’m sure you are, and this
project fits the bill.
For all of you planners out there I know fall
events and even holiday prep work is starting; fall weddings, dinners,
parties and the like. So I decided to create a table number frame embellishment as part of a
centerpiece and thought to use leaves to dress this up. Enter the Fall Leaves
stamp set. Besides collecting stamps, I have a ‘thing’ for ribbon (think
Christmas tree décor) so I pulled out a few rolls of various colors and
textures.
I
stamped the leaves directly onto the ribbon and cut them out (if the ribbon
isn’t too flimsy you can use the coordinating die set). No coloring necessary
on these leaves as the fabric did all the work!
I
adhered everything together with hot glue and then attached the small cluster
of leaves to the frame with another drop of glue. Note: if you use a metal or
glass frame or base, the hot glue can be easily removed after your event or
holiday.
I
then die cut from gold card the word “celebrate” using the Script Greetings die
set and attached it to the center. Isn’t it precious? I could see using this
technique to decorate a small wreath, napkin holders, place cards, etc.
Thank you for taking a moment to stop by I hope I’ve given
you some inspiration to pretty all the things!
