YoYo's!

9.30.2013

I have fallen in love with this CTMH Cricut Cartridge and all of the stamps that go with it!  My favorite item to cut and assemble is the YoYo!
First, pick your paper and set your Cricut to cut the size you desire.  I set my dial on 1.5" and this YoYo ended up being 3.25" in diameter.  Be sure to cut out 2 identical pieces!

Next, follow directions in the second book that comes with the cartridge to accordion fold both pieces.  This is the most tedious part of the assembly.  I felt like I was back at Sweet Peas Ladies Night making those tedious rose buds for our wreaths last week!  
Next you need to glue the two pieces together.  Zip Dry is the best product I have found for this job by far!  It is liquid and dries SUPER FAST!  
Your last step after the first glue application is dry (only takes a few minutes).  Now you will need to glue the other sides together which a little trickier but gets easier each time you make one.
And finally you are ready to put it on your paper crafting project!  You can see the final card in my previous post Everyday SKETCH Friday  Thank you again for choosing your precious time to visit my blog!  Please comment, share, pin, tweet and like to show some LOVE!
