Today the Craft Junkie Too's Crafty Designers are sharing some fun Valentine's Day Projects! Tracy asked us to create a gift bag, party favor, treat bag, or box, incorporating the word "Love" into it. For my project I created little pencil topper party favors to give to my students at our class Valentine's Day party. This picture shows the four different kinds that I created, displayed in a "Love" bucket that I made by simply cutting Love at 1.5" (real size) from Gyspy Wanderings in brown vinyl and attaching it to a $2 pail from Michael's.
Each topper is made with 2 hearts from Create a Critter, cut at real size 3". All of the critters are cut at 2", and the "Hugs" hearts (stamp from My Creative Time's "You Had Me At Chocolate") are cut at real size 3/4". The toppers for the girls were dressed up with some Prima flowers.
Here is a video of how I used my Gypsy to make the piece that attached the topper to the pencil.

ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! I wish I had seen them earlier, but I will keep them in mind for an Easter gift for my son's classmates... I wanted to give them something quilled and this would be a great way to present them. Hugs, antonella :-)

Soo cute! I will have to make some for my own students! The action wobbles are sure to be a hit with your class!
ReplyDeleteSuch clear instructions and the pencil connector is ingenious- it's wonderful that you've shared that tip you got from Suzy B on the forum. This is my first visit to your blog and I love the 'recipe' which makes it quick and easy to see what you used and be able to compare it to what I actually have or what I'd like to own more often than not :-)
