Add a Little Dimension to Your Projects

In February, I had the honor of giving a presentation at Stampin' Up!s Regional Training session Ft. Collins, CO.

I decided to show a little something that I do to Build a Bear, and to many other projects.  I add a little dimension to my projects using a sponging technique.

You see the bear on the right is a little flat looking.  By adding a little Really Rust around the edges and here and there adds detail.

Here's the bear's on a card.  Again, the one on the left is plain and the one on the right is sponged.

Can you see the difference?

Here is the finished card.  It is an "Easel" card.  If you need some help in determining how to make this card, you might stop by my card class on March 19th.

Thanks for looking!

Tomorrow, I will have another example of the sponging technique.

Do you like punches as much as I do?  I love using them to make unusual shapes.

Here is a tree made by using a scallop circle punch. 

To make the tree, cut the scallop circle in 1/2.  From one of the 1/2's, cut after the second scallop to the center of the scallop.  From the other 1/2 of the scallop, cut after the third scallop to the center of the scallop.  You should have four cut pieces - one with two scallops, one with three scallops one with four scallops and one with five scallops.  Layer one on top of the other and glue!
