While I was making tea cups with plastic Easter Eggs, I thought about how cute

they would look on a carousel.

So I made one.

I bought Petal Cone Bigz L Die (Stampin’ Up!) a few weeks ago to make a roof for
a merry-go-round.

I love how it turned out. I used 5 die cuts for the teacup carousel.

But, 3 or 4 die cuts look great, too.

Scalloped half-circle was a part of Petal Cone Bigz L Die.

Decorated with ribbons and buttons. Also to hold the shape.

I’ve seen many many people using paper doilies to make beautiful cards, and I
finally got to use it on my project. I bought a white doily, but colored with yellow
stamp ink pad. Learned this technique from Kathy.

For the carousel bottom, I used 4 Mini Milk Carton Bigz L Die (Stampin’ Up!) cuts.

Put cut Mini Milk Carton die cuts together. And glue them to the base I made.

You can download the PDF file for the base here. This is for 4 Mini Milk Carton
Bigz L Die cuts.

I only had 7ʺ″ cookie sticks, so I made it longer by glueing them together with hot
glue.

Originally wanted to make some triangle banners, but didn’t feel like cutting them,
so I decided to thread some pom poms and pearls together.

I only had white pom poms, so colored them with ink pads.

Put holes on the edge of the roof to attach the pom poms. I think the triangle
banner would’ve been quicker to make.

But I LOVE how pretty these pom poms look on the carousel!
