HARRY POTTERS WIZARD HAT

 

Hi and welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

Two of my Great Granddaughter's loves Harry Potter so after seeing a design on Pintrest made by a Sizzex designer sorry I can't remember his name, I decided to have a go myself.

The only thing is I couldn't find it again when I looked so this is my interpretation of his hat and of course my design card.

As I said there are 2 different ones made for each child.

These are both 8"x8" in size.

As I could not find the tutorial for the hats I had to have a go from a photo of his hat.

I wet some kraft card stock with water and glycerin and attempted to mould the face on the hat.

Made them at seperate times hence the difference.

Card stock used was Tonic.

I made the paper up from a photo and my 3D decoupage CD from ages ago.

I can say they were both delighted with them.

 

Thank you so much for your visit and precious time.

I really appreciate every visit and wonderful comment you make.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

Forgot to photograph the  photo mounts in the top of each page which you can just see at the top of the Album in some of the photos.

Well I hope you didn't get too bored with all the photos.

I made this Album from scratch from a tutorial on You Tube  by Rosa Kelly she does some amazing tutorials and explains everything perfectly.

Blooming blogger has a mind of it's own and I can't get the text under the photos in the centre.

Thank you so much if you stayed to the end and for your precious time.

Hi and welcome to all my very talented and craft loving friends.

I may not be around much again as it's my DIL 50th this month, and I am trying to make her an Album from scratch.

As it's the first of the month yet again there is new challenge over at

The theme this month is

Under The Sea chosen by the lovely Zoe.

You have till the 29th of the month to enter.

This is the card I made for my DT.

 

This will fit in and 8" envelope.
I decided to make a round card for a change.

The image is from the computer.

Ocean colour card stock from Tonic.

I added some raffia type of twine around the edges and tried to tie a 

knot you see in nautical things.

I added some Glossy Accents to the scene for water bubbles.
