Design Team Member Project

By Kim Smith

Look What Bloomed in My Garden!


I made these little cuties using adorable little painted Doll Heads from MoonFairesWorld, Lisa Kettell's fabulous shop on ArtFire where you can find so many cute things for your altered art projects!

Materials:

-Cupie Head, Cotton Candy Color, Lisa Kettell Designs
-Carnival Cupie, Circus Tamer, Lisa Kettell Designs
-Party Chick, Lisa Kettell Designs
-Pre-made Felt Flower
-Basic Cupcake Topper
-Small Sized Flower Pot
-Paperclay or Floral Foam
-Colored Party Confetti or Glitter
-Umbrella Picks

Directions:

1. Glue cute little heads onto a pre-made felt flower (or make your own). Let dry and then glue the entire piece to a cupcake topper that you can find in the party section of your favorite craft store.

2. Put paperclay or foam inside the little flower pot to hold your elements. Layer over the clay or foam with colored confetti.

3. Poke a hole with the cupcake topper into the foam in the place you would like to have your little face. I put mine toward the front of the flower pot. Add Umbrella picks and other decorative picks, and you're done!

So quick and easy to make...and so very fun! If you love this little project, please visit MoonfairesWorld , I would love to see what you make!
