This month's PTI Blog Hop challenge is to create a project incorporating sequins.
This month's challenge is another I have not done before ... challenge accepted! :)
If you would like to check things out for yourself, you can find out all about it here.
I had to order some sequins for this month's challenge. I really wanted to get some yellow ones, but they sold out before I put my order in. Darn! Well, I will work with what I have. :)
A couple of weeks ago, I saw this card by Chari Moss. I knew right away that I wanted to try her sequin technique. Here is my first take:
I used 1/8" score-tape in lines to adhere the sequins and it went surprisingly quick. I kept the card design simple, letting the sequins take center stage.
All supplies (minus the sequins) are from PTI.
My second take on this sequin technique uses a word die. I wanted to make each letter it's own color, and tried my best at a rainbow using the colors that I had on hand.
I stamped a secondary sentiment and then decided to sew a border around the panel that ended in what I'd hoped would look like an arrow. :)
I thought this would make a fabulous birthday card.
Thanks ever so much for stopping by!
