Created this Witch's Halloween Broom using a Tootsie Pop, chalk ink, marker, coffee filters, twine, tag & scissors.
The stick of the Tootsie Pop is painted black. You can use ink, a marker or paint. The 3 coffee filters are folded in half 3 times. The pointed part is the top. Scissors are used to cut the coffee filters from bottom partially to the top. A very small hole is cut with the scissors at the top to insert the Tootsie Pop. The wrapper on the Tootsie Pop is scrunched before inserting the Tootsie Roll stick into the hole in order to make it more snug. After inserting the Tootsie Pop into the coffee filters twine is used to secure the Toostie Pop inside. A tag is attached to the twine. The twine is let loose and not tied into a bow for a more raw look.
coffee filters: 3 brown in color for a broom look
Tootsie Pop: 1
black: ink, marker or paint - I used Midnight Confession chalk ink & a Sharpie marker
Stampin' Up: spider tag made with Ghoulish Googlies Designer Kit. Bitty Banners die for tag sentiment "BOOOO", spider & BOOOO stamps are from Googly Ghouls, googly eyes
twine: brown

Would like to join your wonderful challenge but when I click on the challenge words in your blog to get the link to use in my blog post your site freezes. All I see is the header of your blog with the Halloween images and cannot scroll down to see anything else. 2 other sites give me this same problem randomly and they are: Bearly Mine & Divas by Design. Have tried multiple times.

ReplyDeleteThis is so fabulous, Melissa!! And how creative!! I just love it!! Thanks for playing along at Decorate to Celebrate!!
ReplyDeleteI just returned from vacation and scrolled through all your projects I missed while I was gone. They are all fabulous as always!! I especially loved the Hippie digi card, the bucket shaped card, the don't be blue card and the amazing sketch of JD by your daughter!! She is so talented!! And how exciting that you have a TH Vagabond!! I want one!! And to answer a couple of questions you had on my posts...on the Getting Cricky blog hop card, the cabanas were on the paper and on the Celebrate card, the Decorative Labels 8 dies are normal size, not grand.
I hope you are doing well and happy Sunday :)
