Last day of November - where did this month go??? Tomorrow is December and as a Design Team, we have some fun things in store for you! Until then, here's a layout done by Moon using a "new to us" product - Liquid Pearls. Enjoy!
Supplies Used:
-
MME
paper (So Sophie - Charming),
-
MME
Charming brads, Fiber
-
Imaginese
Geek is Chic stamp
-
Ranger
liquid pearls
-
Martha Stewart
edge punch
-
Ranger
ink
I started the project with the
MME base paper, and inked the edges.
I inked the title (from the
set) and trimmed the blue dotted paper (also MME Charming) down to size, and
inked it.
Then I trimmed the paper I
matted the picture with down, and inked that as well.
I stamped "Geek is
Chic" onto a piece of the paper I used to mat the photo.
I glued to matted phot to the
blue paper, and then put 3 brads down the side of it.
I glued this to the base, and
glues the Geek is Chic over it.
I wrapped fiber around the
title for some dimension, and glued that to the project.
I then used Ranger Liquid
pearls to accent the work. I added 3 drops to the title, 7 on each corner
to make it look like a corner, and 3 more after Geek is chic. Make sure
to tap the paper after applying the liquid pearls, so they round out nicely,
and lose the little pointy piece. You can see why tapping is important by
watching the video I made on this technique.

Thank you so much for this! I have been hesitant about using my liquid pearls for fear that I would mess up.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you shared this! I have used a lot of paints like this (more for fabric but starting to play with using it on paper) and could never figure out how to get the points to round out. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I couldn't figure out how to get rid of the points without actually touching them!
ReplyDeleteGreat job Jenn, they are so pretty and thanks for the tip
ReplyDeleteThanks a bunch.. now I know how to use my newest goodies from CC!!! Very helpful.
ReplyDeleteFlicking the back of the paper also works really well for rounding the drops out
