It's been a while since I made any new decorative plates for a party, but when I started working on our Bronco football party, I knew I needed to add some to the dessert table to add some sweet flair.
But since I have absolutely NO artistic ability at all, I was worried how to make the bronco logo look realistic and cool. If you have a silhouette or cutting machine, this would be super easy, but since I am one of the few crafters left that doesn't have one, this is an old fashioned way to make the Bronco logo decorative plate.
I started by finding the Broncos logo on the web. I had to measure my plate to see how big to make the logo. I printed out the bronco head to be about 6 inches by 3 1/2 inches. Then I cut it out to use as a template.
I used the bronco logo as a template to trace around in the center of my plate.
After I had the base done, I went back and cut up my logo into pieces with the center lines and the horse's mane so I could trace them. I did freestyle the eyes, ear, and nose since they weren't too difficult.
I finished by coloring in the orange and going back around the outline to make it thicker. Then, I baked the plate at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
Now I have a pretty cool and unique serving plate for my Denver Bronco tailgate party!
If you were going to make one, what team would you try?
