scarecrow tootsie pop

You have all seen the ghost toosie pop. How 'bout a scarecrow! Made with a coffee filter just like the little broom.

S&P Recipe:
Jack of all trades stamp set (w...122620, c...122622)
Houndstooth and Scaringbone DSP (126906)
2-1/2" Circle punch (120906)
1" Circle punch (119868)

Instructions-
  • stamp a face just below the center of a coffee filter
  • cover your tootsie pop with 2 coffee filters and wrap with twine
  • tie a piece of ripped fabric around the neck
  • place a 4" piece of ribbon that is shredded at the ends, on the head of the scarecrow
  • use the 2-1/2" circle punch for the brim
  • then punch the 1" circle in the center of the brim
  • make a cone with half of a 2-1/2" circle, overlap by about 3/4 of an inch
  • use glue dots to adhere cone to the head
  • place glue dots on the front and back of the inside of the brim
  • slide the brim down over the cone
  • cut a little section on each side of the coffee filter, pull up peices and tie twine around to make arms
  • glue a few little scraps of DSP on scarecrow for patches
