We are excited to have Jasmine Ford as Making Memories' guest blog designer for the day. I hope you love the fall project that she created to share with us. Below Jasmine shared how she created this project.
I decided to do a home decor project for Fall, since it's right around the corner and is my favorite time of the year. I used a straw wreath and wrapped it with ribbon first and then with yarn in a coordinating color to my chosen papers. I then wrapped the thin brown ribbon on it that I got in a Making Memories Vintage Findings Mini Fall kit and applied the sequins in between that also came from the same kit.
I used my Slice machine to cut all the leaves out in assorted sizes using the Vintage Findings, Remember This and Basics/Seasons cards. The papers used are from the Just Chillin Girls line (pale orange and brown wood grain), and the acetate, green with cream polka dots and the beige patterned all came in a pack when I got my Slice. I also used some dryer sheets that I cut and sprayed with mists. I cut all my shapes out, sprayed them with water and mists, then crumpled them, dried them, inked them with Distress Inks, and then started layering my shapes and the beaded twigs where I wanted them. Once I had it arranged, I started gluing everything down with hot glue. I love the way it turned out and can't wait to hang it up with the rest of my Fall decorations!
