Instructions (Print version)

  1. Cut 6” circle from Flourish paper; punch using Rosey Circle Border Punch.
  2. Using scissors, cut a straight line to center of punched circle; from a slight cone by overlapping ends and adhere securely – this will be the canopy of the mobile.
  3. Poke a hole in top of canopy for ribbon and using 1/8” Hand punch – punch 4 holes around canopy edge evenly spaced.
  4. Cut 8” piece of sheer ribbon; fold ribbon in half and feed loop through canopy hole tie knot on inside.
  5. Cut 4- 4” circles from Dot paper; punch each one using rosey Circle Border Punch.
  6. Punch a 1/8” hole in top of each punched circle.
  7. Cut varying lengths of ribbon 12” – 18”; tie one end to hole in each of the Rosey circles.
  8. On each side of the 4 circles apply Word, Flower & Décor Shaped stickers.
  9. Feed each unattached ribbon end for each of the 4 circles through the holes in the canopy.  *Adjust lengths to stagger them slightly.
  10. Tie knot on the inside to secure.
  11. For the ribbon that remains hanging, curl with scissor as you would gift wrap ribbon. *Take care not to rip or cut the ribbon.  To help it along, after you run the scissors over it 1- 2 times wrap the ribbon around a pencil and it will take shape.
