My daughter loves anything princess related at the moment, so while she was busy painting a masterpiece the other day, I spent the time making her a paper tiara.

I started by using my ShapeBoss to emboss some twirls and heart designs onto a piece of white cardstock, and cut around them to make a tiara shape using precision scissors and scallop edge scissors.

Then I coloured the embossed areas with watercolour paints, though you could use chalks or whatever you like!

I attached brads and eyelets to the sides, tying elastic through the eyelets at the end to turn it into a tiara she could wear (measuirng her head to make sure it fitted!).

The final step was harder than I thought it would be: trying to get her to stay still long enough for me to take a photo of her wearing her new princess crown! (She loves it!)

Thanks for looking, xxx
