All American

Have you seen it yet?

The brand spankin' new red, white and blue collection from Bella Blvd?

All week long you'll find loads of cool stuff over at the blog!

I have yet another pinwheel to show ya, as well as a little wall art

that I plan on attaching to a grapevine wreath to hang on one of our doors.

If you'll scroll on down to the earlier post from today there's a quick 'n easy tutorial

for pinwheel-making...it's not rocket science by any means, but I know I was a little

stumped on the actual 'how-to' before I tried it :)

 I used a 12x12 sheet of All American patterned paper for this singular pinwheel. 

For the stick, I wrapped Designer Tape around a wooden dowel and then attached to the back with a high-tack glue. I kept the design pretty simple by layering the center with a die-cuts, stickers and gems!

 Supplies: All American: Seeing Stars, United We Stand, Borders & Cute Cuts, Alpha+Bits Stickers, Chipboard Icons; Designer Tape: Navy Dot; Button Market: Stars

 

 I took a scalloped chipboard shape and dressed it with All American papers.

 To the center, I cut and traced a chipboard star and then layered it with chipboard letters and cut-out pieces. Hanging pieces like this can also be added to a wall or hang from the knob of a cupboard!
