Embellish tea lights, straws and party banner with rolled paper flowers

June 20, by Stefanie Girard. Leave a Comment

Parties can be a fun reason to craft and making your own party accessories that all coordinate perfectly can be a bit addictive. And if you die cut then you know how easy it is to make lots of something.

That is just what I did with Die’sire flower dies and coordinating paper strips.

Since I knew I was going to make a lot of flowers to embellish tea lights, straws and the banner I cut 4 flower strips at a time several times. I cut each of the shapes out of all the colors of paper.

I had so much fun mixing the colors and shapes of the die cut paper strips around the tea lights, straws and simply making them on their own to embellish the skewers I used on each end of the tiny party banner I put in the cupcakes on the pedestal cake plate.

For the banner I used the largest letter in the Leonie Pujol letter set to die cut the letters PARTY out of pretty cardstock that coordinated with the colors of the paper I made the wrapped flowers with.

I put the letters on the Die’sire Mixed-media pennant shaped die mixing up the colors of the  background and type colors.

I glued the letters onto the pennants and then strung them together with a needle and heavy duty thread.

With a bit of hot glue I attached the thread to the skewers and then covered the spot with another rolled paper die cut flower.
