I was looking to brighten up the sweet-themed Hummingbird Cake I made for Mother’s Day/Birthday. I searched for supplies on hand and came up with bright hued scrapbooking flowers and always festive striped straws. A day-brightening daisy-themed cake topper was the perfect puzzle piece, complete in under 15 minutes.
Materials:
- 3 Striped Straws
- Scrapbooking Flowers
- Coordinating Brads
- Baker’s Twine
- Hot Glue Gun
- Punched Out Cardstock Circles
Place flowers together and secure with coordinating brads.
Tie baker’s twine around one end of a straw and hot glue the knot to secure.
Using a hot glue gun, dab the glue in the middle of the back of the first flower and place the baker’s twine directly through it.
Apply a second dab of glue over the baker’s twine and place a piece of cardstock circle over it.
Continue to do the same for the remaining flowers.
Once finished, tie the end of the baker’s twine to another straw, and hot glue.
Glue a straight line directly in the middle of back of the flowers, and place the remaining straw across.
Turn over, and hot glue one petal of the two outter flowers to each straw to secure.
Happy Mother’s Day! xo
