I've used Want 2 Scrap White Pearls on the tips of the crown.

I've used Want 2 Scrap, Big Beautiful Bling Borders by Nina Brackett
So easy!  Start with a toilet paper tube.  Using Glue Glider Pro and Perma Tac, adhere a piece of cardstock that's been cut to size.  Using Glue Sticks and a glue gun, glue the bottom of the tube closed.  I've used some wire and pearl beads to make both handles.
Instructions:
Start with a toilet paper tube.

Cut paper to cover the tube (4.25" x 6.00").

Using Glue Glider Pro and Perma Tac, apply adhesive to your choice of paper. Adhere the paper to the toilet paper tube. Press one end of the tube flat.
Using a sewing machine, sew across the bottom. (You could use a hot glue gun instead). Use the tiny "Say it with pearls: and apply a pearl to each peak on the crown. 

Using a versa mark ink pad, apply ink to random areas of the chipboard crown and then heat emboss with White Embossing Powder.

Cut 2 pieces of wire 6" long. 

Twist two ends together and the string a bead on the wire, twist the wire several times, and repeat until the wire is beaded and complete. 
Hot glue the crown to the covered toilet paper tube. Hot glue a pin wheel to the center of the crown. Use a hot glue gun to adhere the wire handle. Add sweet treats and crinkled paper to the inside of the tube.

Love My Tapes: Birthday Challenge

Scroll down for the Bind-It All and OWire GIVEAWAY!
Hello friends!  I happened to see a new Design Team Call for Love My Tapes.  WOW!  They do have some beautiful tapes including lace tape, fabric tape, glass tape and washi tape.  You'll have to hop on over here to read the details of the call.

I see one of the requirements is to have one of the projects be a Layout.  SO..I won't be trying out for the call. As you know, I have an altered and mixed media heart so that's where my passion is :)

While visiting Love My Tapes blog, I saw they had a challenge...BIRTHDAY!  I decided to make a card using Dear Lizzy papers by American Crafts.  My Happy Birthday stamp is Crafty Secrets and the tape is K and Company.
