Oh, my I have glitter everywhere!! (Kitty is looking a little sparkly.) But it doesn't seem to matter - I love these stars! The glitter is so very pretty and that little girl is cute and sweet. These glittery 3D stars are pretty darn easy and I think I need several more to decorate for this 4th of July. Good thing they don't take that long to make... Here's how:
To make these, you can use a star die or use a file for an electronic cutter (this one is from Cricut) or even hand cut stars. My star is about 4 inches wide. You'll need two stars per ornament - that way they'll be nice and sturdy. I used 110 lb. cardstock.
Fold stars on the scores.
Stack and adhere two stars together. You'll have a nice heavy base for the glitter.
If you're going to hang them, punch a hole at the top of one of the points. I like to use plain old Elmer's and a paintbrush when I glitter. Let the stars dry for a bit. Then you are ready to decorate.
If you would like to decorate with this little cutie, you can download her HERE.
Thank you so much for all your emails and concerns about the flooding here. We have been safe and I'm so sad for those who have not been. They have been in my thoughts and prayers.
Take care and thank you for stopping by!
What a great project. I just love it.
