I'm not going to name names, but I happen to know a good many folks who have a huge stash of mediums (not to mention all the other paper craft goodies) that are gathering dust in craft rooms and studio corners all around the globe. It seems we're all guilty of the same thing! I thought it was about time to dive into my own stash of products to rediscover some old favourites, and today it's Flower Soft!
I started by colouring the bonus image from the Little Donkey set with alcohol markers. Since I wanted to make an entire scene, I also added some lush grass and a beautiful blue sky.
Once the colouring was complete, I thought about where I wanted to add my Flower Soft. If I were ever called upon to decorate a donkey, which seems highly unlikely, I would add wreaths of flowers around her head and each of her feet. Therefore, that's where I concentrated my Flower Soft efforts.
Add lots of good glue in the area you want to decorate and then cover it with lots of Flower Soft. I used my finger to press as much of the medium as I could into the glue then let it sit to dry for an hour or so.
I tipped the excess Flower Soft back into the pot for reuse and gave the image a brush over to remove any loose fibres. The result is a fabulous, decorated donkey ready to add to a card!
