For my project I decided to make something non-paper related, a Hello Kitty flower headband for my youngest daughter. Besides crafting with paper, I love to crochet and sew.

Supplies:

Hello Kitty cotton fabric

Kanzashi Flower Maker by Clover

The flower maker makes one petal at a time and is so simple to use.  I made 6 petals and added a red heart button to the center.  Then I attached the flower to the side of the headband.

They also make other styles of flower makers and yo-yo templates also.  I find mine at Hobby Lobby or Michael's, and of course always use a coupon :)
 
 Up next is Linda.
 
Here is our complete line up in case you get lost along the way.
