Several of my crafting friends have been inviting me to go to Pinterest for several months. I avoided it because I knew it was going to be something that could get me into a lot of trouble. Fun trouble, but still a lot of trouble. Well, I finally went for it and I was right. Thanks to Pinterest, I have more ideas to try out than I have time.
So in a crazy mixed up way, I combined several different techniques to make this blingy pumpkin. In real life, the mica flakes are more white and look like frost on the pumpkin. I thought it would be fun to share the different ideas and techniques that I combined to come up with this project.
1. Covering a pumpkin with text paper. I went to the Dollar Tree and bought this plastic pumpkin. I then covered it with Stampin' Up!'s First Edition Specialty paper. This is a pack of 24 12 x 12 papers with different texts on them. Unlike pages from a book, it's acid free.
