Playing With Paper

I spent ALL day yesterday in bed. Because I was sick....no. My daughter was. I felt so bad for her. But, because she didn't want me to get up (too much) I sat in bed and played with paper. I used burlap and scrap booking paper on these. Hot glue was my friend!!! So after wrapping and gluing I tied a bow and glued a button. Not bad for a few minute project!! These also were "bed" projects. I cut strips for the one on the left, fan folded them, used stick glue to attach them together. After finishing I had a rosette and hot glued a button in the center.

For the next one I cut out squares....several squares. I glued each one together then hot glued them in a circle. I hid the middle with another button and then glued a stamped image on to the button.

I'm thinking at least I did SOMETHING yesterday!!! Don't forget to leave a comment if you wanted entered in the giveaway!!!! If you want a peek at what I'm giving check here ......http://crystalscottage.blogspot.com/2011/03/big-5-0.html
