Eeyore Mickey Mouse Ears

Hey Everyone, I'm back with a fun pair of "Mouse Ears" today! Eeyore is my all time favorite character so when I figured out how to make ears I knew I would need a pair of Eeyore Ears! They are purposely oversized because Eeyore is a big guy!


My youngest daughter was nice enough to model the ears for me! I used blue and pink fleece and a bit of black faux fur to represent his tail. These ears are so soft I just love to wear them!

Darth Vader Mickey Ears

Hello again! As I've mentioned in the past, I'm a bit of a Disney Fanatic, so of course I had to try my had at making some Mickey Ears. I used a pair I bought in Disney World to size up my ears.And I found these awesome fabrics at Walmart of all places!


I started by covering the headband in the "Star Wars" words fabric. Then I carefully placed my pattern piece that I created so that I would get 2 Darth Vader Sugar Skulls, one in the middle of each ear. To keep things easy, I used the Star Wars Words fabric to do the back side of each ear (yes, it was nerve wracking to get those front sides lined up and cut correctly. Then you simply sew them together. And no, I don't sew well so these are NOT perfect, so that's why I know anyone can do this! Each ear is stuffed with 1/4" foam sheet and batting and then I used my hot glue gun to attach them to the headband. Then I glued a rhinestone trim around the seam of each ear. 


Finally I created the bow with more of the word fabric and used another piece of the sugar skull fabric to create the center strip. The bow is all hot glue and a zip tie, no sewing! My oldest daughter absolutely LOVES Darth Vader so she instantly claimed these as her own!

Celebrate Card

As you will see in future posts, one of my favorite things in the world is Disney. We went on our first trip in 2013 and have been back a bunch of times since. So when I needed to create a fun card that I could gift to just about anyone, I pulled out some scraps from my Disney Scrapbooking stash!


This is a basic A2 card that I created with a black card stock base. Then I layered a piece of fireworks paper from Reminisce on top. I cut out my Mickey Heads and "Celebrate" with my Cricut die-cutting machine and then layered them with a piece of Queen & Co Washi Tape on a white base. I popped up the balloons with a pop dot under each, and hand drew the balloon strings.

I hope you enjoy this card as much as I do!
