Together her and I looked thru magazines to find inspiration on what I could make still look like the icon but in a triangle form. You'd be surprised how many ideas we came up with. I sorted thru my Momenta paper pads and some scraps that I had left from kits, locating all the colors that I wanted to use. I tried to create some using solid cardstock and others with patterned paper - keeping an interesting combination by doing that. After I created it I had her tell me what it was (that way I knew if I was on the right track...) I also had her help me with a little bit of making dots and doodles here and there. I used very simple paper piecing to create all of these and added some punches for the facial features. They all of course have to adorn googly eyes - between those and goofy smiles I think we got them all pretty silly looking!
Here's the final product:
And here's some close ups of all the fun icons:

P.S. I hang my banners across my windows, too... no mantle for me, either... maybe someday!
This is absolutely adorable! I think it should be included on Fabulous Friday! :)
