A Silly Little Project
Hi - Jean Okimoto here again - with a project to make you smile. Or laugh, and comment that I need to get some help!
It started with a seasonal craving for cheese puffs. I love how they resemble the ribbed texture of pumpkins. You may think we ate just a few and used the rest of the bag for projects. Not true.
See the great collection of Memory Box dies, stamps and papers.
Attach Scor-Tape to black felt and diecut Perky Pumpkin Face 98421. Be sure to use good felt - like the wool blends sold at Impress - for best results, without the little fuzzies that cling to the edges. Attach the pieces to a mason jar. Add the cheese puffs, before they're gone.
Diecut Blooming Rosettte 98121 from Moss felt. Gather the straight edge using heavy duty thread and long running stitches - about 1/2" long. Tie it securely into a circle. Glue a strip of felt along the sides of the jar lid. Attach the rosette.
Attach Scor-Tape to Moss felt and diecut the Blooming Rosette Center.
Twist 4 strands of 26-gauge gold wire together. Twist them around a paintbrush to create tendrils. Attach the tendrils and center to the rosette.
Great news...we've added another Christmas with Poppystamps class to the schedule at the Tukwila Impress. It's from 11:00 to 1:00 on Saturday November 2. Six great festive cards, lots of techniques - and giftbags too! Space is limited to 7 more students because there are 2 other classes there that day - please call ahead to save a seat if you can join us. It's 206 901.9101.
Thanks for visiting!
Oh how cute! What a creative idea! Of course if I had the cheese puffs, well, I wouldn't because I would have eaten all of them before having a chance to put them in the container! Sheeeeesh! Thank you for thinking outside the box, Jean!

Almost ate them all before I filled the jar- there was just 1 extra piece left. Scary!
