Baby-Themed Bunting


Today I wanted to share a fun project that would be perfect for a baby shower or nursery. 


The onesie is part of a folded invitation AccuCut die. I was able to get two out of a 12" x 12" sheet. I then embellished with paper flowers, rosettes, stickers and ribbon. 



To make the above paper flower, punch or cut a circle out of paper. Cut in a spiral toward the center (shown here with the blue line). 


The inside of the circle will be the center of your flower. Roll the spiral around the center as shown. Loosen the spiral and secure the end tail with adhesive. For projects like these, I prefer to use Glossy Accents. It permanently secures ribbon, metal embellishments, and paper flowers.






Hope you enjoyed today's project and inspires you to create some crafty decor of your own!

If you'd like to create the onesie shown here, our AccuCut machine and dies are available for free use to Creations Club members or can be rented for $4 an hour (up to $15, includes table space and access to our other tools).
