I'm dying to share this with somebody!!!

Remember that project I told you I might tackle this weekend? Well, I tackled it sooner rather than later, and it was a breeze to make! A few nonths ago, while poking around the 2Peas gallery, I found this great idea by Sandy Krieger. Isn't it beautiful? I had bought my own metal star a while back, and thought maybe I could attempt this with mine. Well.....I did it!!! This is MY star,
finished and hanging on my new green wall! I am so happy with how it turned out, I'm going to go on a mad search of the city to buy more stars so I can make more of these to-die-for beauties!!! Note the paper I used on the star....it's the new collection pack of Basic Grey paper (Phoebe line) I bought yesterday! It matches my new green walls perfectly! It was hard to break into the pack, especially because I didn't know if I could make it stick to the star, but everything turned out ok. I followed Sandy's directions, and literally, whipped this thing out in less than an hour! I didn't have the kind of glue she used, so instead, I used Tombo Mono Metal Liquid glue, and it worked like a charm. Instead of outlining the exact directions here, please go to the link I gave above and follow Sandy's directions. They are SO well written and easy to follow!

p.s. One special note regarding Sandy's directions....I didn't have any tracing paper on hand, so I just used a brown paper bag and traced the star shape that way. I laid the paper on the star exactly like Sandy show's in her pictures.....
