Here is my answer to Laura’s Paper Crown Challenge on her blog, Layers of Color. This week’s challenge was to create a paper crown using at least one rubber stamp. I started with a sheet of Fabriano Water Color paper then used two rubber stamps with black StazOn ink. I punched out the holes in the bottom with a paper punch and then painted over the whole piece with Golden Quinacridone Magenta (I dabbed off some of the paint while it was wet to add some depth). I used lime green tissue paper glued to the back of the crown to show through the holes and then used a white Sharpie poster pen to paint white dots outlining some of the black stamping. I attached a ribbon with three stripes of green using my sewing machine and a zig zag stitch. I then sprayed the whole thing with gold glitter and then added pink silk ribbon to the crown points for a more feminine touch. Enjoy!!
