As I mentioned in my previous post Gecko Galz is hosting a 25 Days of Tags and today is my first offering...
I made a beaded tag...the image was covered with micro beads to give it a "snowy" feel.
My second tag is this darling little raccoon all ready for Christmas morning.
Be sure to check the blog each day for a new tag and new chance to win!
I love them both, but the cuteness of that raccoon.♥️ How do you adhere the micro beads? I have some, but don't know how to adhere them on a card or tag.
ReplyDeleteThank you :) To apply the micro beads you can spread any glue that dries clear over the entire image then sprinkle the beads over the wet glue. You can leave it to dry or I like to lay a piece of cellophane or clear packaging over the wet glue/beads and flatten them out with a rubber brayer. This ensures a nice flat layer of beads over the image otherwise you might have thick or thin areas of beads. After you have flattened it out remove the cellophane and let dry completely on a flat surface. OR if you have a sheet of double sided adhesive paper (like the red-liner tape but in sheet form) you can adhere the image (image side to the sticky side) to the sheet, trim, remove the liner paper then sprinkle with beads. This is a less messy way to do it but sometimes the adhesive sheets can be difficult to find. Hope that helps :)
DeleteThank you. I'm going to try these to see which works for me. I have some of the double sided adhesive paper, so that will be first
DeleteGreat!! Good luck and have fun :) It's a unique and unexpected look.
