I'm so thrilled we're at week three of My Pumpkin Challenge #1115 - Share A Caring Thought! AND, so excited to match it with this week's TGIF #29!
I haven't really been using the kit supplies on this one, have I? Lol, let me see if I can just dip my toe in, at least! I decided to cut up the pretty washed panel the kit provided, to make my sidebar. I did some stamping, but then realized I wanted more dimension, so I stamped on my scrap piece left over to do some contrasted blossoms. I also decided to try my hand at something I've been seeing a bit for this kit - playing with "burnishing" the BACK of my cutout to add some shape and curl to my flowers. Neat trick! I used my scoring tool from my score-board, but an even larger one would look smoother and more defined, I think. Totally trying this on something else, too!
Tip: if you want to give it a try, work in little circular motions to minimize creating a "scratched" appearance on your paper surface.
Blissful Bouquet Paper Pumpkin; plus, Memento Tuxedo Black, Old Olive & Crushed Curry Inks; Curvy Corner Trio Punch; Basic Jewel Rhinestones.
