Clear Scraps All-Star Frame
July 22, 2013
Earlier this month I did a project for Clear Scraps Creating Made Easy Kit Club, using chipboard banner pieces to create a star. I liked the way it turned out so much I decided to try it with Clear Banner pieces to create an All-Star frame for my daughter's softball pictures. She was pretty excited that her team finished the season undefeated!! OK, ya, I was pretty excited and proud too!!
I used one of Clear scraps new Mascils - 6" Quarterfoil - and Stazon ink to create a little pattern on the acrylic at the tips of the banner pieces. Then I cut strips of patterned paper to add layers and color to the pieces. These papers were left over from the July Creating Made Easy Kit.
I used 5 large eyelets and my Crop-a-Dial to secure the pieces together. Hint: Don't press the eyelets too hard at first - just hard enough to hold the pieces together. Once you have all 5 eyelets in place, swivel the banner pieces as necessary to even out your star shape. Then crimp them tighter to hold. Cut a pentagon shaped piece of paper to glue behind the opening in the center to secure the star shape and provide a backing for the pictures.
Do you have a little All Star in your house?
Until next time!
