I chose to make a really simple project today. I used a plastic pumpkin that I picked up on clearance after Halloween. I thought I would make a simple Thanksgiving decoration. I stamped Stampendous Autumn Words on plain white tissue paper with Tsukineko Rich Brown ink. Then tore the tissue paper into about 2"x3" pieces and adhered them to the pumpkin with Fast Finish and then added another layer of the glue over the top to seal it all. Unfortunately, I didn't get a good picture since it's really overcast here today.
I think I may head out today and see if I can find a few more pumpkins. My boys want to make some of their own. It's an easy project that would be fun for kids. They have the next few days off of school, so it will be a fun project for us to work on this week.
Be sure to check back here on Saturday for our big Stampendous/Beacon Blog Hop - you're sure to be inspired. In the meantime, check out what some of my team mates have to share with you today.
