It's time for a "wicked fast Wednesday" project and in fact you are getting two projects. Would you be shocked if I told I created these from a kit? After all the kitprojects lately, I am sure it is no surprise at all! With Valentine's a month away, it was time to start kicking things up a notch in terms of decor and these projects do the trick!
WARNING: This first project may cause flashbacks to having to climb up the rope in gym glass OR making it through a recent CrossFit workout!
Admittely, you likely have not climbed a rope with alongside 4 of your friends! Don't you agree though that this absolutely works for these little monsters?! These cuties come from the Monster Hugs Boy and the Monster Hugs Girl kits. Each kit contains 18 monsters so after buying 2 packs for Brooklyn to share at pre-school I had enough left over for the the projects today!
TIP: The monsters do stay in place pretty well on their own when using the Natural 5/8" Chevron Ribbon. However, knowing how much the girls open an close the bedroom door where this hangs, I did add a little bit of tape to the back of each monster to be sure it stays in place!
And I also put together a little monster chain to hang across the playroom door:
Here are some close-ups for a better look:
"Love you"
"Love you more"
Can you just picture the monsters shouting this back and forth?
TIP: Put away your ink pad and grab a Stampin' Write Marker to color in only the portion of the stamp that you want to use!
QUOTE OF THE DAY FOR JANUARY 14, 2014: "Momma, that Monster is showing me his butt" - Britt, 2-1/2 years old
TIP: Until you write or stamp on the back, do NOT apply the googly eyes...they make it really hard to get a solid stamped image.
Trust me, these are "wicked fast" projects! So should you find yourself with extra kit pieces or simply want some monstrous decor this Valentine's Day, hope you'll give these ideas a try!
