Designer Craft Connection Blog Hop Sponsored by Westcott Brand


Westcott® Brand Cutting Tools


  Westcott® "The World's Favorite Scissors" is sponsoring the Designer Craft Connection Blog Hop for October. VELCRO® Brand Fasteners and Duck Brand®Tape  are also supporting this blog hop by providing materials.  



I chose to create a Changeable Headband for this Challenge...




the products I used are: 










Products used that are not pictured above: 
Plastic Headband, Velcro Brand Pink Double Sided Sheet, Brads & Charm.

Here is how I created the Changeable Headbands...


 I gathered my supplies




to cut my Duck Brand Tape
the length of my headband.  I put the  Tape 
onto the headband and trimmed close with scissors.




to cut flowers out.
first put wrong sides of tape together
to make a double sided tape,
then die cut.

The flower above I left flat and
attached a brad through the center holes
with a Breast Cancer Charm hanging.




 For this flower I die cut the 
double sided tape and the
and layered them together.



 For this flower I die cut the 
out twice and used the large flower twice and
the medium and small flower once.
This product is so cool because with the 
fringe of the flower I was able to 
stick it to itself to form a 
3D Flower easily!




 Once I had all the flowers made...




which by the way cut like butter.



 Then I attached the Velcro Sticky Back Adhesive 
to the headband and the backs of the flowers.



 The flowers stick easily to the headband




 and can be changed out



 for whatever look you want.




 Then I needed a way to keep everything in place so 
I used a piece of mat board and covered with
Duck Brand Tape and added
to hold the flowers in place when 
not being used.
