Sticky Paper & Glitter


I just ordered the sticky sheets to experiment with. I will soon post a neat Mosaic tile technique that I learned from one in my downline. She always has great new techniques she's learning! We will be doing the Mosaic technique at the next club in Roseau.
Supplies: Choc Chip Cardstock, Piroutte Pink Cdstk, Riding Hood Red Cdstk, 1 1/4 in circle punch, scissors, 1 1/4 in square punch, Sizzlits Die & Big Shot, double sided paper, & GLITTER!!
1. For the bkgd on the double sided paper, I punched out 4 squares. (Save your squares we'll be using them for a technique coming up!!)
2. The pink Piroutte paper is cut at 2 1/4 X 2 1/4 this gets adhered on top of the bkgd paper and then the bkgd paper gets adhered to the choc chip paper.
3. Run the Red RH paper through your Big Shot using the flower Sizzlit Die.
4. Punch a circle out of your sticky paper. (If it doesn't go through all they way, like mine, just finish cutting your circle with the scissors, the punch leaves an imprint on anything it didn't cut so it is easy to follow the circle imprint.
5. Peel off the white backing and place your sticky cirlce in the center of your flower. Take off the orange peeling on the sticky strip and sprinkle with glitter.
6. Adhere everything together and stamp whatever greeting to the bottom of your card.
Note: I also tried micro beads on the sticky circle and it looked great. It gives it a nice texture, but I get the beads all over. They bounce around everywhere!! Just a heads up.
