These are the coolest stars - they're about 8" across, and they were so easy to make! I made my own patterned paper with a variety of stamps (Martha Stewart, PTI, Studio G, TAC), and then whipped out the parts with my Cuttlebug and the Sizzix Bigz 5-Point Star die - it did all the cutting and scoring for me. All I had to do was fold on the scored lines and attach the sections with adhesive. Really, the thing that took the longest was stamping all the paper. I'd love to try these with metal... Hmm, coke cans perhaps? I can't believe I almost didn't keep this die. It's awesome!

Cool looking stars!
ReplyDeleteThey're FABULOUS! WOW! I knew the die was fairly large, but I didn't realize the finished star would span 8"! Fantastic! Love the colors you chose--thank you so much for sharing yours!!! *warm hugs* JulieHRR
