Homemade Cloth & Paper Tape Fun!

I forgot I hadn't posted these pictures yet 

from a fun time I had with my art peeps!

We created our own handmade cloth and paper tape

following Cathe at Just Something I Made's

directions.

I had found a bundle of fun retro looking fabric

at Big Lots and made mostly cloth tape.

Not only did we have fun creating

we also dressed up for the occasion!

Pumpkin Make-Over

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!
