Animal Prints

I was rummaging through my makeup bag and came up with a large pile of cosmetics that I need to throw out. But I told the trash can not to display the "Welcome" sign to my stuff just yet. We've got some blah to TADA! to do.

Blah: Powders like eye shadow, foundation & blush.

You can only keep them for two years.

Pry them out of the compact and

pound them into a fine powder.

Add the powder to a half-filled bottle of glue.

One color per bottle.

Mix thoroughly using a skewer.

Make sure the color reaches the

bottom of the bottle.

TADA! Our very own paint!

My custom colors inspired me to make some

animal-print note cards.

I used the brown paint for this giraffe print.

The black paint for my zebra print.

Let this dry overnight.

Ooops, looks like I didn't grind the powder that well.

But I quite like the 3-D effect and grainy texture!

Using glue gives an embossed look and the glitter in

the eye shadow adds some sparkle!

Imagine what else you can do with pink blush and

electric blue eye shadow!
