Cupid Tree Top

Happy Thursday!!

It's my day to post over at Miss Kate Cuttable's blog.  

My DT project is a tree top for our Valentine's Tree.  We were away from home over the holidays with no room for a real tree or any big decorations..so I told hubby that I was going to have a Valentine's tree.  

I put the tree up but didn't have a topper.  With all the weather that we have had here in the midwest, I haven't gotten to any stores to see if there is anything of use.  So I decided to make something.  Hubby wanted a cupid so off to Miss Kate's files I went.   And I found Miss Kate's Cupid cut file.   It was perfect. 

I cut the file from WPlus9 Cupids Bow Card Stock (which is not available any more).  It was a perfect match for the tree decorations.  

Then I clear heat embossed the whole cut.  You can see the shine in the photo below.  To attach it the tree, I hot glued a red pipe cleaner to the back. 

 

I know that this project seems a bit simple..but it took a lot of trial and errors to get this one.  For example, I attempted to create a glittered version, but it was a total fail! 

Thanks for stopping by.
