Pumpkin Pin Badges

Following on from yesterday, I re-did the pumpkin badges, even managing to save the original ones by scrapping off the Crackle Accents and sanding down the fabric paint a little, before painting them with a Wilko orange coloured tester pot instead.

When the two coats of paint were dry, I added just plain old Ranger Glossy Accents and then drew on the lines and faces when it was dry, using a fine tipped, black permanent pen.

On the back I doodled a quick outlined pumpkin before adding the brooch pin using B-7000 glue for a really secure fix.  These will do, I think I’ll save the Crackle Accents for when I have more time to experiment, although I think the problem was I am sometimes just a little too heavy handed with products!

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
