Witch Hat Lantern Tutorial

Happy Thursday everyone! 23 days until Halloween. I can’t wait! With that being said, I created this amazing project using 3 files. I used the Witch Hat Lantern found HERE, (Silhouette) I used 3D Flower 4 found HERE, and I also used Build A Rosette: 2 inch found HERE. I used Handmade Halloween paper collection from Echo Park Paper Company found HERE.

Cut all your pieces for the witch hat lantern and any embelishments you with to decorate it with. I used the rosette and  3D flower 4 as mentioned above. 
I inked my edges of the flower and rosette.
Gently curve the paper wedge and fold on the score lines.
Adhere the straight edges together to form a cone. The piece that has the slant goes on the inside, with the outside piece overlapping the slant piece. I use score tape to secure the seam.

Fold the tabs on the brim up and adhere the cone piece onto the polka dot brim piece using score tape.

Create the rosette by folding along the score lines into accordion pleats. Join the ends to form a ring. Press the top edge inward to flatten it into a circle and adhere the center onto a small paper backing circle (cut from any scrap paper) using liquid glue or score tape.

 

Using liquid glue or score tape, adhere the rosette to the bottom center portion of the cone. Adhere the pumpkin sticker to the front of the rosette.

To assemble the 3D Flower 4 just layer your pieces on top of each other and adhere in the center with adhesive or a brad.

Tie ribbon of your choice around where the brim meets the cone. Cover the knot with the 3D Flower 4. I found the eyeball for this at Dollar Tree on a flower and had to use it for this project because I loved it so much.

I put a battery operated tea light in the cone for the glow.

5X7 3D Fall Bouquet

Happy Monday everyone!  We are FINALLY getting some fall weather here in South Dakota. I’m so excited for that. These 90 degree days were getting old.

Today, I created this cute fall bouquet and mini card found in Lori’s shop or the Silhouette store (SVG, Silhouette).

I used Doodlebug Farmhouse collection and coordinating patterned paper. I just adore these colors and patterns. I popped all the top pumpkin pieces with enamel hearts.

I finished off the projects with some epoxy hearts and bakers twine.

Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting.

Bee-Lieve in Happy Little Details

For this project, I mixed and matched several of Lori’s SVG files…multi layered mini album, tiered album tabs, library pocket, shaker sunshine…to create one sweet little bee-themed album full of interactive details.

I used Lori’s Bee Happy paper collection throughout, and I love how the yellows, greens, floral, bees and honey-inspired patterns work together .  It was such a fun way to combine different SVG files into one project while keeping everything cohesive.

A little bit of this, a little bit of that… and whole lot of Bee Happy!
