Instructions:
Watering Can Project
Template can be printed and cut
on 8.5x11” or enlarged to fit 12x12 paper for larger size. I enlarged the main
base to fit 12x12 and estimated size of the handle and spout with adjustments
to close in the pieces.
This template originates
from: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/wateringcan/
1. Using the templates trace and cut the pieces to your
watering can.
Fold your watering can, spout and handle pieces.
TIP: to make the curvature on the upper lid edge of
watering can I using the flower shaping kit to bevel the outer edge instead of
adding the extra strip of paper. It worked perfectly especially with the high
quality of Heartfelt Creations paper.
2. Using the Ornate
Borders & Pockets die cut in coordinating paper and apply to the
upper lid section fitting into the rounded concave grove. If your making the
smaller size watering can you’ll have decorate this section to fit the size
your working on.
3.Using the Spellbinders Label 46 smallest die cut 2 of
them to fit on the front and back panels under where you placing the sprout and
handle section… for added décor.
4. The upper lid section on the outer sides need to be
bend and glued into the outer edges.
5. Form your spout and handle ready to apply to the front
and back panels. On the handle section I used a large stapler to add extra
strength to it. Otherwise just glue it firmly. The spout was glued only.
6. Using the Border Essentials die I cut 4 of them and
glued and cut them to fit the 4 bottom sides.
7. On top of this border I glued some thinner lace all
the way around.
8. Next using the Wildwood Floral Dies I cut and layers
some flower and added some accents to the centres. I also took print flowers
off the Sun Kissed paper Collection and fussy cut both small and larger flowers
to add to the shaped floral cluster for
the main section of the watering can.
I die cut both the bird and the butterfly from the
Garden Romance die collection. I cut 2 of each so I could pop them up giving 3D
look for dimension.
9. Now taking all the flowers, 3D accents and adding some
beaded accents I started gluing on and clustering the main section.
10. I die cut a few more flowers and also a leafy piece to
accent the side of the spout.
11. I now went back into my stash to find a few more
beads, stones, hearts etc to decorate the upper lid, the spout and a few more
accents added to the main floral cluster.
12. Last but not least was the cute small clustered
ribbons and bead accents is added to the back handle. Tie them off and glue the
beads and your done.
