For Try it Tuesday, we're making our own enamel dots using products you probably already have in your stash.
You'll see in the video the ones in the jars are made from sparkly colored glue sticks run through the glue gun. The others are made using three different styles of 'drop' mediums.
I hope you get out your toys and play! Then let me know how you did in the comments below either here or in the video.
Last week, I jumped into the hashtag, #TryItTuesday. Madi started doing it and I thought this what a great way to tag team... then she didn't do one last week! There are several creators using the hashtag, though, so do a search on social media to see what everyone is up to.
I needed a card for Madi's Spring challenge and one for my SMMR COTM group.
I started with THIS <--- click - video from Junebug Creations on YouTube. She need a simplified version of a gate-fold card. These go together really quick. You could use up patterned paper quickly doing Mass Makes - then just add the sentiment as needed.
First, the stamp set I used:
I've had this set about 10 years or more. If you recognize the company, please let me know.
Then I chose this 6x6 paper pad a friend gifted me last fall:
Apologies for the glare. Overcast here yesterday morning meant I had to use all the lights. There isn't a company name on the pad and the papers are one-sided.
This is the card I made:
One of the things the gal from Junebug did was when she cut her DSP, there was a strip left, just enough to decorate the envelope. (since there technically isn't an 'inside' to this card.
Using the same concept, I made this card for the Spring Challenge in the Spectrum Art Creations & Friends Facebook Group:
I used paper and journaling card from Graphic 45 Fairy Wings, blue braid trim, butterfly from trim and Sunburst stickles. For each challenge item we must use at least 3 items from our SpectrumArtCreations purchases.
If you want to see how this came together, along with another card I made and the measurements, check out the video below.
