Martha Stewart Score Board!!!

Happy Birthday to me!
So it was my birthday on wednesday and Lucky me got spoilt, i wont bore you with the details of everything i got, but today i got my score board! My sweet bf ordered one for me off ebay hahaha!
So here it is, i love it already, its going to make life so much easier :P


I have wanted to make one of those fan flowers for a while and what better reason to make one now that i have a score board. I've seen a few tutorials here and there but for this i just did what i could remember. (its pretty simple).

Here's what i did:


In normal circumstances i would measure the piece of paper but this is just a mock up so i just grabbed a random scrap piece. I scored the paper at every second line and then fan folded it.


You need to then grab each end and glue then together, so they fit nicely together. One end must have a valley and one must have a mountain, i dont have a whole lot of images for this part as i was trying to work it out as i went and i failed to do this part lol.


As i was trying to fold the flower down ^^^ i realized my piece of paper was too wide so i cut it in half first ( yay two out of one ). You kind of have to push it down and hold it, then i got a circle piece of paper hot glued it and then stuck the fan to it so it stays together.

End Result:

I added little pearls for more interest, i think ill be more creative next time.

I decided to make a birthday card with it, here is what i came up with!
