Mira Marvels

Last weekend, my normally quiet and peaceful studio was transformed into the destination for a gregarious group of ten amazing crafters! We all had so much fun the whole afternoon, creating paper crowns and gifts using products from my colorful Mira Collection designed for K&Company.

We started with a table full of Mira papers, stickers, die cuts and Grand Adhesions, as well as ribbon, rhinestones, sequins, glitter and other colorful goodies. Using the template from a post in March on crowns (and making some creative variations on the shape), we cut, pasted and xyroned our way to some fabulous and regal creations.

We used metallic florist’s wrap to create shimmering medallions, which serve as a lovely focal point on several of the crowns.

Thanks to Doug for taking all these great photos, and thanks Aaron, Kat, Theresa, Tiffany, Lisa, Grace, Wendy and Dottie for a fabulous day of laughter and friendship!!!

ps: To see additional crown projects visit A Midsummer Night's Dream, posted in June 2007.

Dear Brenda,

This class looks like it was a ball! And what better to wear to a ball than a fabulous crown! Take a peek at a couple of crowns I have created at http://frannieandme.blogspot.com/2008/02/crowning-glory.html
I believe you'll see some of your inspiration there.

Thank you
