An Epiphany Layout

Hi Clear Scrappers,

It's Katie today with you sharing this pearlescent mixed media layout to kick-start the holidays this December... Using the Ornate Borders, I trimmed the borders and used them together with Corner Ornater Mixer as embellishments for this layout...

I uses white as my main colour scheme and added a touch of gray, light pink and teal with sparkles for this... 

Hope you enjoyed what I had shared here...

Cheers!!!

A little Holiday Stenciling

Stenciled Linen Bag

One of my new found obsessions this Holiday Season is stenciling on Linen.

I used Clear Scraps 6″ Word Xmas Tree stencil, acrylic paint and a stencil brush

to make my bag.

Tip:  I use removable tape to keep the stencil from moving and to mask off any areas where

I may go over the stencil with my paint.

The linen bag measures 6″ x 10″ .

Clear Scraps Stenciled Holiday Pillow

I loved using this stencil so much that I also bought the 12″ Word Xmas Tree.

These are Quick and easy Holiday projects to make.  

They would also make a great Christmas gifts.

Tip:  I stenciled on a 13″ x 13″ piece of linen. The next pillow I make would be

a little larger so that the entire image shows.  My pillow measures 12″ x 12″.

Happy Stenciling,

Sue Eldred


Clearly Thankful Card

Hi there, Lisa here today to share a Thank You Card I created using our 12 x 12 Acrylic Sheet.  I was creating another project using our Acrylic Sheets and I had a couple of scraps sitting on my table and I realized they'd make a great pocket, so I grabbed some washi tape and whipped up this cute little pocket that fits a 4 x 6 card perfectly.  In this case, I used a pre-printed Heidi Swapp project life card that says "merci" in gold.  I love how the message can be seen through the pocket, and I can even tuck in a gift card if I'd like.  The sequins just made for a more festive card, don't you think?

So don't let the scraps from our Acrylic Sheets go to waste, create some pocket thank you cards today!  And Happy Thanksgiving to all of our American friends!!  


Counting Blessings layout

Raechelle here with a layout to share today. 

I just cannot get ehough of the Clear Scraps 12x12 Acrylic Sheets! With them a simple layout becomes something more, like a piece of artwork to display. 

I added the background paper to the backside of the acrylic sheet and then build the rest of the layout on the front. The effect creates such a wonderful dimesion that is difficult to capture in an image.

With Christmas fast upon us the 12x12 Acrylic sheets would make it easy to create a special gift of a memory that a loved one will cherish.

 


Christmas Cards Made Easy With Send It Clear

 Happy Holidays Clear Scraps friends, 

It's Pinky today with a Christmas card I created using a Clear Scraps Bell Send It Cear Card. 

These cards are perfect for any time of year and their holiday shapes make Christmas card making easy and you are giving that special touch too.

For this vard I used painters tape and taped off the edges of the bell, then spray painted it gold. I also spray painted a Clear Scraps Scalloped Circle Frame gold.

I took a white glitter and added it to the botton of the bell, then I added it to the card base as well. After that I put pearls on the Scalloped Circle Frame and stamped an image onto cardstock.

I adhere the frame onto the base of the card and sliped snowflakes underneath. Then added the sentiment and adhere metallic cardstock to the back of the card. 

I wanted to leave it clear in the front so I didn't decorate anything except the bell. I asselmbled the card with the clear stickers included in the card kit! It is beautoful when closed or open, I love each one of these card shapes. 

Until next time- Keep on creating!

Fall Leaves Video Tutorial

Hi everyone!  Nancy here today to share with you a project I made using ClearScraps 12x12 Acrylic Sheets.  Of course ClearScraps has beautiful shapes (including leaves) in stock, but I really love the dimension I got when I embossed my leaf with the matching embossing folder.  

 

And here is a fun project I made with the completed leaves.  It was suprisingly quick and easy with a file from svgcuts and a bit of cardstock.

if you want to be happy...

Hi everyone! Wendy here and today I'm sharing a layout featuring Clear Scraps XL Dots and KaiserCrafts pattern papers. I was excited when I discovered the large circle in the XL Dots fits the Kaiser Craft Celestial pattern paper perfectly!

I randomly stenciled a bit of white acrylic paint on the XL Dots with the Quarterfoil Mascil. To keep the pattern light, I sponged off most of the paint before applying it to the acrylic. 

CS_KC_nov1_wendy price

I fussy cut butterflies and roses from the Honey Chai pattern paper. I layered it on the front of the XL Dot and added foam adhesive on the back of the acrylic. This allowed the Clear Scrap acrylic to be raised slightly towards the middle, showing off the stenciled design. 

To finish the layout, I added a border along the edge of the XL Dots with a White Zig Marker.

Supplies Used:

Clear Scraps XL Dots,  Quarter Foil Mascil
KaiserCrafts Blubelle and Honey Chai Collections
Beacon Zip Dry Adhesive
Zig Marker

Christmas Plaque- Clear Scraps and Kaisercraft

Hello! Raechelle here sharing my project for the Clear Scraps and Kaisercraft team up. 

I used a Clear Scraps XL DECCO Acrylic Shape as the base for my project. These come as a pack with two great shapes! I trimmed the Kaisercraft North Pole patterned paper a bit smaller than the design and placed it on the backside. Next I added a red twine border around the edge on the front. I then added some Kaisercraft North Pole die cuts and finished them off with some rhinestones, a bell and some twine. Some are lying flat on the acrylic shape, and others are popped up with some foam stickers.

This project came together easily once I had my idea and supplies. It would make a wonderful gift!

Scrapbooking acrylic with Kaiser Crafts~

Hi, Connie here with a scrapbooking page using the XL Dazed Shapes by Clear Scraps.  I used the one that is cut like a postage stamp.  I wanted the clear to show, so I did it this way~

Orchard

Instructions:

1. Remove the film from the front of the acrylic .  I always leave the back covered while I'm creating the page and then remove it when I'm finished.  No scratches that way.

2. Spray the front with Black irRESTible Texture Spray by Imagine Crafts. 

3. Let dry about 30 minutes. 

4. The middle strip of paper is 11 1/4" X 5".  I used the Hello Sunshine Collection by Kaiser Crafts.  Super cute!!!

5. Adhere the paper to the acrylic using Zip Dry by Beacon.

6. Embellish with cut outs and twine.

7. The two pumpkins are cut from acrylic sheets using the Tim Holtz Pumpkin Die.

8. Journal the information about the page.

Acrylic shaped scrapbooking pages look great displayed on a book stand and then later added to an album for storage.  Love the look acrylic gives!

Thanks for stopping by~
