Birthday Bash Challenge 26 - Party Hat!

Posted: Fri Jul 25, 2014 11:11 pm

Okay ladies. As you know we've been celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Scrapping Turtle STORE and the forum 1 year with the Birthday Bash Crop As a last challenge, Bev Code and I came up with a hat template. Your challenge today is to create a party hat using this template and THEN we want you to take a picture of yourself wearing the hat!!!
To create this hat right click on each of the template pieces below (the pictures are full sized so you can print them easily) and save them to your computer. Then print out the two templates - one per 8 1/2 x 11 page. Cut out the templates and lay pieces on 12x12 cardstock so that straight long lines are together. Then draw around the template and cut outline. (You'll be making one big piece.) Also cut where indicated for slit and tabs. Take the end pieces of the tab on the right side of the hat and fold them towards each other. Then fold on the dotted line and insert into slit cut in left side of hat. Apply adhesive where necessary to hold your hat together. (Different weights of paper will require different amounts of adhesive.) This will create the hat which you can then decorate any way you want!

Here's the hat I created for the challenge... I used some Echo Park patterned papers, a big flower with a brad and then I created a border using Kreaxions Punch #311 with some shiny fibers threaded through... I have a ribbon with gold stars hanging under to hold it on my head... What FUN this was to create!

And here's the picture of me wearing the hat. I kept waiting to take a picture until I felt/looked better but that didn't happen so you got a picture of me just a few minutes after I returned home from having an endoscopy! LOL! It's a horrible pic of me, but oh well... LOL!

So now it's YOUR turn! We want you to be creative so let's see what you come up with! Can't wait to see your pictures!!! Happy Hat Making!
