Grateful
A little on line local challenge
I did the background with blender brushes and Brillance ink
It is shiny
Then I heat embossed the leaves and acorns
Added the charm and die cut
ENJOY

HANDMADE PAPERS
I AM MAKING COLORS FROM NATURE TO DYE THE COTTON FOR THE PAPER
This is the easy one,no dye just made from sewing pattern tissue not cotton
Above is a deep strong peach the photo above is more true to the color Color made from a combination of reds and yellows
Lilac turned out beautiful made from blue purple flowers and beauty berries
Pink is stronger in person and it is lovely
Yellow is the easiest right now since I have many yellow flowers in the yard
ENJOY

Behind the fence
I have learned that the build a die on the last post
doesn't have a stamp set match and is meant to be used
exactly as I did it
YEAH ME !
This is a matching stamp die by Simon Says
Really cute
The fence is a MS punch

Build a Die
I don't have the matching stamp
So instead of coloring I cut from five
different shades of card stock
Then layered
I think it worked well and will be trying others

Papermaking
The dye is made from yellow flowers
I made her sample strengths to choose from
After the cotton is cooked to break it down it is blended in the colored water
The pulp is made from the cotton plant and dyed
