Tuesday shoebox

For today's shoebox wanted to try a technique that at some point was shared as Tuesday Try This. It's called pillow top. I saw two ways of doing it and this one is the one I liked better.

What I did was cut my paper to size (5" x 3-3/4") then I scored diagonally every inch starting in the middle. When you're done you'll have a sheet of diamonds.

Then I sponged the outside edges, to me it was easier to sponge first as it seemed to have more body.

Then started sponging each scored line from top

& bottom, through all the score lines...you could sponge first the top on both sides and then start over sponging the bottom

I then mounted it to my base card and added liquid pearls on each crossing point, let it dry completely and add image, in this case was feline sleepy by Stampendous.
