it's Wed and I know it's suppose to be a recipe be - but hey fun to mix it up a bit would'nt you say? lol
instead I thought it would be fun to show you how I make my tassle on the graduation
card from yesterday
so the first thing I did was take a piece of satin ribbon
I used black and approx. 15''
I folded it in half and made a knot in the top with a loop
then I cut the edge of the satin ribbon
like photo below
it's the tiny edge of each side of the ribbon that keeps it all together
we are taking it apart
so we are cutting that off
now that both side are cut start pulling off the cross strands
up close this is what your ribbon will look like
you will take all those cross strands off
now I all did at this piont was comb it out a bit
and tried to clean up my mess lol
ready to put on my cap
what do you think of this idea for tassle
I think it's wonderful that we can create so many things out of our Stampin Up
supplies!
then I inserted a large white brad thru the center of my cap
and thru the loop that I created when I first made my tassle
there we have it my friends a ribbon tassle
hope you enjoyed this short tutorial

oh I wanted to show you a few project that Renee and I have been working and
the BIG Crane that we will be doing decals for and installing on Friday
this is the second largest crane I will have ever decalled
so it will be fun to do
Renee and I measured it all up on Monday
I will share photos of this big crane when we are done with it
----------------
and these are decals that we made for Enviromulch this is one of our mulchers
that Rex and Evan operate
and a side view before Evan put the decals on it!
now a few decals on the side
installed by Evan - hum wonder if he would stitch over from Enviromulch
to join Renee and I lol
I think NOT - but it's a good thought he he
this is a stripe that we did on an end dump
oh want to see how good Max is when we do installs
he knows that he can only come out if we let him
so he is just waiting patiently till we are done
too adorable
