Teddy Bo Top Tips!!

Good morning friends!

Helle has made a wonderful tutoral for us this time, so just enjoy!

Tutorial for my small basket with alot of pictures..

What you need for this basket :

6 "x 6" card stock to the basket.

2 strips 6 "x 1/2" card stock to handles to the basket.

scoring tool or bone folder

scissors

glue

1 "circle punch

4 brads

~~~~~~~~~~~~
Start :

First step :
Score your 6 " x 6 " card stock at 2" and 4 "
Turn around and do the same on the other side.
Your card stock should look like this


Step two :
Cut your card stock like the one at the picture

Step three:
Glue both sides of your basket together like this.
If you want to distress the edges you have to do it first.


Step four:
Glue your 1" sircle at the top of the triangle,wich I trimmed a piece of first.
Then make two holes for the handles on both sides of your basket,
attach them with brads.

Step five:
You can decorate your basket with layers of pattern paper if you want to.
I'll keep mine simple.

I will show you how I decorated mine using
Cherry Lynn Designs Dies.
"Medium Rose" and "Fanciful Flourish"
This picture will show you what I used for decorating my basket

Teddy Bo Tuesday - Pink and Brown mid challenge reminder

Good Morning and welcome to another day here on Planet Teddy Bo!!!

The sun has graced us with it's presence here at Teddy Bo Towers...always makes a good start to the day!!  I hope that the sun finds some time to pop round to your house today...!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are half way through our current challenge which is

PINK and BROWN
 we do hope that you can find the time to join us in this challenge as this colour combination seems to be very popular right now in Blogland..!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SO...what's NEW this week!!

Well.....as we no longer have a weekly Teddy Bo release I thought it might be interesting to draw some new FairyD images......and I know how hard it can be for people to make male cards, so I thought I'd try and help out a wee bit by drawing some boys for a change....we have so many beautiful girl characters out in Blogland but we don't always have so many boys.....so this week we have 4 NEW ones....oh and a cat!!! ;O)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

...and because we're half way through a challenge some of the girls have used some Teddy Bo from last week and some of them have used some new ones from this week!!!  Either way they're all stunning!!!!  Thank you ladies...x
