Last week's project had the subject line of Week 9, but it should have said Week 10, which means today's is Week 11!!! Yikes!
This week's project will use up some of your festive paper (you all know you have some in your stashes).
You can make different size medallions depending on the diameter you want. Three sizes are shown.
Week 11 - Medallion Tags
Supplies
Use any 12" paper you wish. I used A Walk in the Forest Designer Series Paper (162377).
Method of scoring. Either your Paper Trimmer or Simply Scored Scoring Tool (122334).
Your choice of ribbon.
Your choice of cutting circles: punches or dies.
Multipurpose Liquid Glue
Sentiment stamps and ink colors of your choice!
Instructions
Shown are three
different size medallions: You choose your size:
3" diameter = 1-1/2" x 12"
4" diameter = 2" x 12"
6" diameter = 3" x 12"
If you want to make the two larger medallions, you will need two 12" strips.
Score each strip every 1/2".
Fold accordion style. Helpful tip: If you will be glueing two strips together, I suggest folding each strip in opposite directions. For the first one start folding (in
accordion style) away from you and then start the second strip towards you. This will help when glueing together).
Clothes pins are helpful with sealing the seam.
You will need to connect the two opposite seams together with either glue or a stapler (2nd next photo). You have a choice to seal first and add a ribbon to hang later (photo later) or, include a ribbon in this seam (second next photo).
Shown below is a ribbon stapled into the seam.
You will need two circles to make the medallion stick together.
Flatten and shape medallion together and place a circle (with lots of glue) both on top and bottom of center). Press to hold (or put something like a punch on top to give it weight while it dries).
If you choose not to include the ribbon within the seam, you can either glue the medallion directly onto the gift or punch a hole in the top center of the medallion to loop ribbon through.
