Sunburst Carnival Journal Project
"Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things"- Sound of Music
We all know just how much I love the Carnival and Cupie Dolls, that's why I'm excited to share with you this fast and easy project I created that everyone can do in a few short minutes with a few simple supplies, its called a Sunburst Carnival Journal.
Transform any journal or notebook into a carnival journal w/a few simple supplies and steps.
Materials:
-XL Cupie head from Lisa Kettell Designs
-Medium Sized Wood Craft Sun or Moon
-A Journal
-Craft Glue of Choice
-Optional: Glitter, Ribbon, Bakery Twine, Lettering, Broken Jewelry
Directions:
1. Place the medium sized wood craft sun onto the center of the journal, glue in place.
2. Attach the XL cupie head on top of the wood sun, glue in place.
3. Add extra embellishments such as glitter, ribbon, lettering, etc.
Tip/Tricks:
-Use hot glue for faster gluing
-Coat XL cupie head with glitter or embellish with broken jewelry
-Line the bottom edge of journal with colored measuring tape (found in the sewing section of craft stores)
-Add found objects to journal
-Cover a composition notebook with scrapbook paper or wrapping paper, then add wood accents and cupies
Hope this project inspired you to create a journal of your own, cupie heads and other embellishments are available.
xoxo
