Paper Therapy Challenge #11 - Snowflakes!

Monday, December 13, 2010

Good morning and welcome to another challenge at Paper Therapy. If you are not familiar with Paper Therapy, it's an online forum for card makers and scrapbookers to share their work, chat about crafting and life in general. There are also swaps and challenges too! Every Monday there is a new challenge posted in the forum HERE. You have until the following Saturday night to upload your project based on that week's challenge. The first challenge of every month will receive a prize and a blinkie. We would love to have you play along! It's a very fun community of crafters!

This week is very simple -- make a project with a snowflake on it! I wanted to change it up a bit this time around, so I decided to make a paper snowflake! I found this tutorial online, and tweaked it to be my own. I had some Stampin' Up! double-sided DSP, so I thought it would look great for this project! It was pretty simple to do -- you just have to plan ahead. I ended up waiting to unravel the paper from the pens after two nights of it being wrapped just because I didn't get a chance to finish it before then. I think it worked out good because the paper is still pretty curly. I think this would be a great project to do with your kids (if you have any, lol!). I think I will be hanging it on a doorknob at my house.
Thanks for popping in! Have a great week everyone!


Supplies:
Patterned Paper: Stampin' Up!
Accents: Colorbok - Clear Rhinestone; SU - 1.25" Circle Punch, Embroidery Floss
Other: Glue or tape runner, stapler, 6 pens, scotch tape
