Hi friends. It surely does not feel like Saturday today. But, since it is, I participated in the inspiration challenge on SCS. I chose the first sample given and took my inspiration from the red and white vase.
I've wanted to try toilet paper molding since I've seen a few samples on various sites. So I thought this would be the perfect opportunity. It is a fun technique and the results are quite stunning.
You place a stack of toilet paper on your rubber stamp, wet it and then press the TP into the stamp crevices. Once it is dry, you can use it on your project. I used my heat gun and let it finish air drying. I used French filigree background stamp from SU. You can see the texture a little better in this second photo. I wasn't sure how well it would die cut with one of the thinner dies, but I was pleased with the result.
The flowers are from simply sketched (SU). I stamped them twice, fussy cut them, but on one I cut off the bud, and placed them so I would have a taller image.
I also punched a border with an abstract flower border punch.
