Also I wanted to with everyone here in the U.S.A. a very Happy Thanksgiving!!

~Final Donna Salazar DT Post and Tutorial~

Hi Everyone!!  I’m back with one more project!!  I also wanted to use this post to say goodbye to Donna's Team L

I had to cut my final term with Donna short, due to my personal life being so crazy busy right now.  I have enjoyed being on Donna’s team for close to three years as a guest designer and then a regular designer.  It was so fun and these girls have all been amazing!! They are super talented and inspirational!!  I will miss working with all of them!!


For my last little project, I made a flower, which I don’t do very often.  This particular flower can be used for many different kinds of projects.  I made a larger one for my daughters hair and I downsized another one just a little to do a tutorial on it.  My daughter calls these her Loopsy Flower, so that’s what I called it too.
You will need eight 1/2"x4" strips of your favorite paper.  (For the larger flower, like the one I made for Brooky, use twelve 1/2"x6" strips of paper)

Distress and Ink your edges.
 Fold your paper in half and glue.  I used little glue dots for mine.
 Next fold another piece and overlap the first loop as shown below.  About a 1/2" overlapped.
 Continue around the flower as shown in the next few photos.



 Next you can decorate the middle however you like and you are all done.
Here are a couple more shots of her with the flower I did for her.  I just used a couple bobby pins to fasten it to her hair.

~October Scraps of Darkness Gothic Kit~

I'm back with a few small projects I did with the Scraps of Darkness Gothic kit from October.  These items will be my last SOD DT items for the next couple of months.  I decided to take a break over the holidays and come back in January.  I will still be posting things on my blog and I am still DTing for Donna Salazar, so please don't think I'm giving up on scrapping lol!!
 
This first item is a paper pumpkin I made.  These really are pretty easy.  I just grabbed a 12x12 sheet of patterned paper and cut the whole into 1/2"x12" strips.  Then I made them into circles overlapping the edges about a 1/2" and stapling them.  I tied them all together with some ribbon and fanned them out.  Then I decorated the center.
 Little card I made.
 Then I also created a little tag as well.
Thanks for stopping by and God bless you all!!!
