ScraPerfect Shaker Bookmarks Flowers

Hi all

Would you like to learn how to make these fun shaker clips?

Tutorial is below.

  Start off by cutting out the pieces using a nesting die. Cut the base and top out first and then place a smaller die into the center to create a frame. Cut out two from craft foam and one from card.

 Glue the foam pieces together and then glue them to the base using Best Glue Ever. Once the glue has dried, fill the box up with sequins and micro beads.

 

Seal the box over with acetate and then glue the patterned paper frame over the top.

 

Decorate each one, i added small letters and gems to the clips. I then glued them onto large paperclips and placed some tape over the back to hold the clips in place while the glue sets.

I forgot to add in the video that i used gloss enamel on the tops of the clips to make the tops more robust. I painted the clip part and used a matte medium to seal it but whether the paint will stay on is another thing.

The Crafting pouch is good for untacking the glue and the Embellie Gellie makes picking up little bits easier.

I created these planner clips to mark the months out in my planner book.

How To Create A Double Heart Shaker Card With ScraPerfect

Hello all

I have a card to share today. I used Best Glue Ever to glue the embellishments and shaker boxes together.

http://scraperfect.com/product/best-glue-ever/

Start off by cutting out one large heart from patterned paper using a nesting die. Then one  from acetate for the top. Place a smaller heart die into the centre of the larger heart and secure with washi tape. Cut out two or more from craft foam. This depends on how deep you want the shaker boxes. Cut a frame from patterned paper.

Repeat the steps using a smaller pair of nesting dies and then glue the foam frames together before gluing to the base. once the glue has set, fill the boxes and then glue the top on. Add the frame cut from pattered paper over the top to cover the glue up.

Cover a blank card with paper and then stamp a texture stamp around the edges and in the centre. Glue down the shaker boxes.

Decorate with charms and flowers which were inked with bronze mist spray.

How To Create A Dazzling Christmas Decoration

Hi all

I am back with a quick Christmas make showing how Best Glue Ever can be used to create fesive decore.

Start off by taking the letters and painting some red and adding decoupage paper to the rest of the letters.

Leave it to dry and then use Best Glue ever to cover the letters with gems and pearls. Best Glue Ever sets tacky so really small embellishments stay stuck and do not drop off once the glue starts to dry.

Once everything has set. Use Best Glue Ever to glue the letters together to form one word. This glue is great for wood as once it sets it sticks tight.

How To Create A Adorable Penguin Tag

Hello craft friends 

I have a tag to share with you today and how easy it is to add glitter to projects using Best Glue Ever.

http://scraperfect.com/

Use the landscape stamp to add the snow mounds to a plain tag.

Apply Best Glue Ever to the snow piles and spread the glue over. The glue will hold the glitter onto the project so it won't flake back off over time. This glue dries tacky instead of dry and brittle which is why it bonds so well with glitter and small embellishments. 

Apply fine white glitter and leave it to set.

Paint the top half of the tag with blue acrylic paint.

Stamp over the tag with the snow fall background stamp in dark blue ink.

Apply small blobs of Best Glue Ever to the tag using the Fine Tipped Nozzle add on.  Apply fine white glitter over the top and leave to dry.

Stamp out a penguin and colour in. Add white glitter to the belly and hat.

Add the hat and scalve to the penguin and add it to the tag

Finish the tag with a sentiment

How To Create An Altered Box With Best Glue Ever

Hi all

I have a altered box to share today using Best Glue Ever from ScraPerfect available here http://scraperfect.com/

Start off by painting a small wooden box with gesso and then paint over with chalky finish paint.

Stamp over the whole box with a texture stamp using dark green ink and leave to dry before applying modeling paste over the top with a stencil.

Use Best Cleaner Ever to clean the ink off you stamps and tools. 

Apply blobs of Best Glue Ever to the bottom corners of the box and then carefully attach the feet. Leave the glue to set. This glue is perfect for adding metal to wood because it dries fast and has a strong hold once dry unlike PVA glue which is a lot more runny so the bits tend to slid off while it tis drying.

I used clay with silicone molds to create the shapes which i painted with Quinaodone Gold fluid acrylic and then dry brushed with gold paint. Once dry i glued the heart to the wings and adhered it to  the box. I added mdf cogs around the front.

I rubbed a bit of bronze metallic paint over the box to highlight the wood grain a little.

How To Add Glitter To Projects With Best Glue Ever

Hi all

I have a card to share and i used ScraPerfect Best Glue Ever to add the glitter. With this glue the glitter will stay pit and not flake off again like it does with other types of glue.

I started by covering a 5 x 7 card with the large butterfly pattern from My Botanical Garden Collection and then i added a few blobs of Best Glue Ever and spread it across the edge of the wings.

I then sprinkled over fine teal glitter and tapped off the excess.

I finished the card off by stamping out a verse in the top corners in sea green ink.
