SuperCute!

Tonight, our pal Davis is playing a masquerade ball! Obviously, this meant we got together with some friends and made masks for the occasion!

To make the masks, we drew the shapes we wanted with marker onto two pieces of cardboard. You could really use just one piece, but gluing the two pieces together makes for a sturdier finished product. The one pictured above is made from a frozen dinner box. The feather is a single piece of cardboard that’s sandwiched between the two mask pieces. We used glue sticks to decoupage salvaged book pages on top, then added embellishments. I decided my mask would be the shiniest and did a layer of blue glitter glue (of course!) and a layer of glitter mod podge! Christy brought over a basket of ribbon and ric rac, and Lori had a tray of rhinestones and feathers and other sparkly things for us to use!

I took this picture because it makes me laugh a lot. This is me getting back to my crafty roots, after applying all that sparkliness to my mask!
