I didn't get a chance to do my crimper card yesterday, because I went to a stamping blitz workshop at Bella Art Store in Johnston, RI. We made 12 cards in 5 hours and used loads of foam squares and Stickles. It was a blast! So I've combined my crimper card with the Inspiration Challenge today. I needed a card for my kids to give their friend for his birthday today and this was the perfect inspiration. It took me a few tries though. I got this idea from a book that my kids have that has pictures of cars and then the back of the page is black except for the engine or something like that. You shine a light through the page to see the engine in the car. I printed the pumpkin and cut a six out of black paper (you can see the six a lot better IRL). But the paper I used was too thick. So I tried thinner paper. Still didn't work. So I used copy paper and it worked like a charm. And, well, I have two more of these pumpkins ready for another project.
