Mixed Media ATC's For ScraPerfect

Good morning ScraPerfect fans, Kim here today with my next DT project!
This time I have created some mixed media ATC's I am sending off to a friend for her YouTube challenge she is having.

I started off with some white acrylic paints as a base coat.

Next, I got out some of my Lindy's Sprays and started to add some colour.




Now its time for The Best Glue Ever and some torn paper scraps from my stash. I laid them down first to see where I wanted them, then added some of the glue to hold them on the wood surface.


Once the paper was down I used another colour of Lindy's on top to add another dimension.


Now its time to get out my stamps. I started with a script stamp for the background, then I used this Tim Holtz Stamp of the 3 gentlemen. However, the stamp lifted some of the paint up and stuck to the stamp, no problem tho, The Best Cleaner Ever will clean that right up!


Sometimes we have little accidents like this on our art, and if it happens, its just another reason to make your art unique! 


Now I am placing some more of the Best Glue Ever with the No Clog Writing Cap to some random places on the ATC's. I will let it dry and get tacky for the next step.


Here I am adding some of the Transfer Foils to the tacky glue. I used 2 different colours of the foils on each.


Here is the ATC's with the foils on them.


Next step is a bit more Best Glue Ever and some glitter glass!


After the glitter glass I then added some of the Gold Lux Mix for some sparkle!


A word or phrase and a couple of metal embellishments and I am almost done!




I thought a finishing touch would be nice so I used the Wheel of Embellies to add a little flower to each of the wings, I think it finished the ATC's off nicely!


I hope you like my project today. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Junk Journal Ephemera with ScraPerfect!

Hello everyone!  
I have dusted off my blog, I know its been ages since I posted, but I have returned to the design team on ScraPerfect.  I am thrilled to be sharing my first project since my return to the team. This time I have created some fun ephemera pieces for junk journals. I have also done a video explaining how I created the pieces!

First up is the Perfect Crafting Pouch!

I used the pouch to ensure my printed pages did not smudge or run from the ink. It works fantastic for this.


Now its time to get out the Best Glue Ever. I cut out my tags I printed and glued vintage book paper to the backs.



I cut out the rest of the ephemera, and did a quick sew around on my machine with black thread. I then used the Best Glue Ever to mount them on black card stock to give them a nice polished look.


Then it was time to glue all the pieces together!


I couldn't find my dimensional tape. So no problem! I used the folded black card stock and more of the Best Glue Ever and made my own pieces to pop my words up on my ephemera. It worked out great!


Here you can see how great they look popped up.


Time now for the Floral Wheel of Embellies to add some fun to the ephemera.


The finished tags, complete with vintage lace, tulle and seam binding at the top.


Completed  pocket squares for junk journals or card fronts.


And, last but not least, my finished corner tucks!


Here is everything all together.


Here is my video explaining how I put it all together!
