If you have followed me for a little bit you know how much I love creating with cardboard!
Here's another budget friendly project you need to create!
It's a perfect shelf setter . It will bring a touch of elegance in any area of your home !
Supplies you will need.
• Cardboard
• hot glue
• Elmers glue or Mod Podge
• Tissue paper
• scrapbook paper
• twine
• embellishments of your choosing
I got my cardboard and started cutting out hearts I freehanded the hearts I wanted from large to small . I cut out 6 hearts
It's easier to fold your cardboard in half then draw out half of your heart .
Please make sure you are drawing it from the fold of your cardboard so when you cut it out both sides of your heart are even .
This is the best and easiest way to cut them out.
Then peel the paper off of every other heart I love that look!
I left a little paper on them so it's not completely off .
This is the look you are going for .
The hearts I didn't peel I decoupaged my scrapbook paper choose whatever paper you want .
I used Elmers clear glue for this .
You can use Mod Podge if you like .
Then I started hot gluing my hearts together when they were done .
I love this paper !
It's looking pretty cute already!
This is my last little heart to glue .
I used Hot glue to glue them all together!
This is what it should look like .
This step is totally up to you .
I took my Dixie Belle Brown wax and grunged it up a bit !
I love that look !
I think it gives it a more vintage look.
I took my twine and wrapped a little of it around my hearts . I glued the the beginning of the twine and the end when I was done wrapping it .
I wrapped it about 4 times .
I then made these beautiful roses from tissue paper .
You can refer to this blog I linked below for some similar flowers I did on another blog .
I will do a separate blog just for these tissue flowers!
I made two flowers they are just beautiful!
I also dropped a link below for some similar tissue I used .
I got this tissue I used at Hobby Lobby.
I added this fun rusty key to the twine after creating the bow .
I also glued this button to the bow also !
I just love how beautiful it looks !
Of course I had to add a little sparkle this is fine glitter .
I used this hair spray that I use for crafting to spray on then sprinkle a little glitter! It holds really well!
It's so sparkly!
I just added it to the flower area.
That's it ! It's amazing how plan ordinary cardboard can be transformed into something so beautiful and just so elegant!
A perfect touch in any room!
I hope you get creative and give this a try !
