Hi American
Crafts fans! Are you ready for a fantastic crafting afternoon with your kids? Today
I’m sharing an easy-peasy and super fun summer craft project which I made with
my daughter on a rainy day. This time we decided to create a colorful banner to
decorate my daughter’s room. To start, we grabbed circle punches and some cute
ephemera pieces or stickers from the Wild Card collection.
To create
the 3D animals, we chose matching colored cardstock papers from the project pad
to each ephemera pieces and used circle punches in different size depending on
the size of the ephemera piece we wanted to use. We cut out 6 circles to every cardstock.
Then, we folded
in half 5 circles, and glued them together. First, we added glue to the back of
the first half circle and then align the next half circle directly onto the
first. To create a perfect paper ornament, we made sure that it’s perfectly even
on all sizes. Then, we added the
remaining three circles with the same technique.
Next, we
chose a cute animal or ice cream ephemera piece, and cut it in half. We adhered
the two parts to the back of the paper ornament and covered the back with the sixth the circle we punched out earlier.
We couldn’t
resist creating 12 pieces from these adorable 3D embellishments, more than
enough for a nice banner over Kitti’s bed. We attached the pieces with a baker twine and
used a hot glue gun to keep them in place.
If you have
some cute ephemera pieces at home, why not make a one-of-a-kind banner? Your
kids will love putting together this adorable home decoration, and they can
even create specific pieces to match their room.
