HOMEMADE CORRUGATED SHAPES & LETTERS

I just love craft paper but add a little paper crimping and you've got a match made in heaven :)

Here I made three (graduated in size) butterflies.  Two are out of plain craft paper and one was cut from the DCWV PLAYTIME stack which I LOVE.

To add some color, I used Tim Holtz distressed ink all over one of the plain paper ones, of course I inked the edges on all three.  Add some glimmer mist before you crimp them if you like.  The ones pictured below are just inked.

I bent the wings up and glued them together in the center with some dimensional silicone to give each layer a little lift.

I've made letters like this also and I really like the look.

  1. WOW Ellen. These are really pretty. They would look super adorable on a card with some pearl dots. At least that's what I see in my mind.

    TFS,
