Paper Fringe

As promised here's the wall hanging I made for yesterday's Gingersnaps Challenge - Try a Tutorial. We have a boat load of fabulous tutorials on the site, they're really worth checking out. I followed Lynn Steven's tutorial on how to create a paper fringe for this piece. It was very straightforward and really fun.

Be the Change Hanging

I don't think I've ever made a hanging thing before - I think I've come under Hels' spell! The base is chipboard covered with patterned paper by Queen Bee and the flowers are Primas, which I've been hoarding for over a year! Here's a closer look:

Prima flowers

This project came together a lot quicker than I thought and I'd definitely use this paper fringe technique again.

Have a super day!


Supplies:

  • Stamps: Ghandi Quote (Impression Obsession)
  • Paper: Queen Bee, kraft tissue paper
  • Ink: Crushed Olive & Antique Linen Distress Inks, Cocoa by Memento
