I found this great backing paper ages ago and have never used it until this hat - perfect! Cut out the hat shape with top fold (and no, it is not symmetrical, I didn't want it to be), cut out the backing paper slightly smaller, then decorated. Stamped sentiment in white on black (a little blackboardish), made some flowers from 'ugly' paper - and guess what ? I found I had some matching ribbon.
