a few people asked me how I did the alpha's on my "confetti" layout
![]() I thought of answering it in the gallery but then... I don't know how many of you check back.. I know I forget most of the times when I ask something so I thought I would tell real quick here. The letters are plain chipboard alpha's (Basic Grey - sweet to be exact) I painted them dark yellow. let it dry then I opened my bottle of purple paint and just put my finger on the opening. got a tiny spot of paint on my finger and dipped that on to the yellow painted alpha's. Let that dry.. and put glossy accents on them. that was basically it. =) -------------------- |
