How -To: Card Stock Earrings

 Hey Y'all!

Today I'm sharing a simple cardstock project, earrings!

Supplies:

Cardstock 

I used my DCWV scraps from previous blogs, and a pink piece from the Cricut x Martha Stewart Collection.

Earring Template 

I used my Cricut & this image:

Jump Rings

Earring Findings

I got both of these from Hobby Lobby on sale.

2 pair of pliers (or other tool to separate jump rings)

Any other embellishments you may want to add

Let's get started:

Link to this project in DS~ https://design.cricut.com/landing/project-detail/63978beeec3120ba69dcb50f

Step 1) Assemble Supplies

Step 2) Choose design.

A) We chose to layer the design. Duplicate, for a total of 3, then size to your liking.

B) Send the project to mat. Since this was a smaller project I moved all the pieces to cut from one mat instead of three. Would you like a how to on this? Let me know in the comments below!

Step 3) Cut your earring template!

With this cardstock on my Cricut Explore One this is the setting I chose:

Step 4)  Assemble! Would you like a step by step on this? Let me know in the comments and I'll make a short video.

Open your jump ring,

 add your cardstock pieces, 

 add your earring hook,

 close the jump ring.

Embellish as you choose.

(I added an additional jump ring, but that's not a necessary addition. Do whatever you like. The more jump rings you add, the longer the earring.) 

Step 5) Admire your work!

If you have any questions about any of the steps please ask in the comment section, or find me on social media, I'll get back to you ASAP.

Have a great day,
