I started out by gathering a few supplies. I ended up using a few more things than I started with, so I'll list those here, too, even though they're not pictured.
20 - 6'x6' pieces of double sided paper {5 - 12x12 sheets)
1 scalloped diecut paper
1 sheet of accent paper to cut into strips and accordion fold
1 - 8" circle of coordinating paper to glue the cones to
1 - 4" circle of coordinating paper to glue the accordion folded accent paper to
1 - 9" piece of ribbon to make the hanger for the back
letters and embellishments to finish
scissors
trimmer
hot glue gun
Secure by gluing under the top edge with a glue gun.
I laid them out as I rolled to be sure that I had enough. The amount you need will depend on how you roll them. :)
I needed 20 to complete my circle:
Now pull out your 8" circle:
Start attaching the cones to the circle with your hot glue gun - about 4" in.
Glue more cones on:
Until you complete the circle:
This is where I added my scalloped paper {after doing something else first and taking it off! LOL), but you could embellish how you like!
I then topped my scalloped paper with this accordion folded shape. To make it, I started by cutting my accent paper into 3" strips. Fold three of the strips to create the accordion circle. I did about a 1/2" fold. Then glue to strips end to end.
Glue to the 4" circle:
Finished:
Layer it on top of the scalloped paper, and embellish! {Note: I used the final 3" strip of paper to create the little banner that I added my letters to!
To hang it up, I hot glued a piece of ribbon to the back:
