Spells Queen paper crown tutorial. Quick, easy and ready to wear.

What are you wearing this year for Halloween? How about a "Spells Queen" paper crown? I have to admit that after making a few I had to share this one with you. It's quick, easy and ready to wear. And you can use the same materials you have left from making the "Witch in the City" crown.

Let's get to the tutorial!

CHALLENGE: Use my template below on your "Spells Queen" paper crown and make it unique!

MATERIALS:

Glue Lines®, Removable Glue Dots® and Micro Glue Dots®.

Scrapbooking papers

Ribbons

Glittered star

Scrapbooking flower

Fine glitter {gold}

Craft Punch {mine is Martha Stewart's bat}

Pencil

TOOLS:

Sharp paper scissors {mine are Fiskars}

Punch hole

INSTRUCTIONS:

First let me say that I never thought I could glue certain things without my glue gun...I was wrong until I tried Glue Dots®!

Select your scrapbooking paper sheets with a gold background and spider web for your "Spells Queen" paper crown

TIP: Did you know that you can glitter Glue Dots®? You sure can! Keep reading...

Cut some Glue Lines® out of your roll.

Sprinkle them with Martha Stewart's fine glitter in in different colours.

Carefully peel them off and decorate the edge of your scrapbooking background sheet adding them one by one.

TIP: You Glue Lines® will look nicely glittered after one application but will look a little see through. If you wish a more solid look, add more fine glitter and press it down with your fingers.

Choose a banner on your computer using Word, type "Spells Queen", print and cut it out.

Choose letters from scrapbooking sheets to form the word LOVE. Cut them out using your paper scissors.

Add a few Micro Glue Dots® on the back and attach them below your "Spells Queen" and on the spider web scrapbooking paper.

Attach a glittered star to the top of your "Spells Queen" crown using Micro Glue Dots® on the back.

The repeat the same step and attach a scrapbooking flower to it.

Using a punch hole make a hole on each lower edge of the paper crown.

Cut four pieces of ribbon using your scissors. I used an orange one and the other with Halloween prints. Mine are about 15 inches long.

Pass two cuts of ribbon through it to make your ties.

Tie and enjoy your "Spells Queen" paper crown.

IDEAS: It can be used as a table decor, cake topper, etc.

Make my "Witch in the City" as well!
