On my trip to the dollar Tree store I
picked up the following Styrofoam pumpkin
and cool stickers and turned them into
THIS below:
Supplies Used
Styrofoam Pumpkin
White Glue (any white glue will do)
Brush
Punchinella | Vintage Book Pages
Pigment Inks
Stickers
PYM II |
I've gathered my supplies |
Start by tearing your book pages into strips and coat the pumpkin and the strips with watered down white glue. |
Smooth any air bubbles and wrinkles (you don't want) out with your finger. Allow the pumpkin to dry. | Using the inks add highlights and color using the punchinella as a stencil. |
Add your stickers where you desire and burnish well with the cap of a pen. |
Add 3 or more coats of the white glue allowing each coat to dry in-between. |
Once your pumpkin is dry seal it with PYM II to keep it from getting sticky from the glue. |
Check out your Dollar Storeand see what you can
find to alter and enhance with your creativity!
