I had a little fun this weekend playing with some scissors and glue.
I also had a little fun playing on "picnik".
Can you tell?
I love this textured look,
and the cross process, makes it look kind of spooky.
This is the gritty effect.
ok, here's how I made the pumpkin.
I took about 5 paperback books from my son's room that I had purchased from the thrift store for .50 cents each. He hadn't ever read them yet and decided it was a lost cause so I'd make good use of them. I traced a half pumpkin shape with a pencil, then cut using an exacto knife.
Here are two books side by side that make a pumpkin shape.
Then start glueing them together. Let dry under a stack of something heavy. And then continue with the other 3 books until it is really full
and looks something like this.
This goes along perfectly with the fall style I am going for this year,
creams and blacks, with only a touch of orange.
