Hi all, I am Giò, today I'd like show you how to make a charm with Polyshrink.
First of all, here is the list of supplies you need:
Whiff of Joy stamp
White polyshrink
StazOn Jet Black
Pigment ink various colours
Cotton bud
Heat tool
3/16 hole punch
With StazOn stamp the image on polyshrink and let it dry.
Cut the image with precision
With pigment or chalk or craft ink, color the image with the help of cotton bud. I use the Versacolor ink.
Apply the color with little circle moviments and don't worry if is it appeares really clear, because when polyshrink will reduce, the colors will be more intense.
After you complete the coloring with hole punch make a hole on the top.
With an embosser will reduce the polyshrink.
Don't be afraid if you see it screwing up it will distend it self.
To make it more flat, when you swich off the embosser, press on it an object flat.
Et voilà....... your charm is ready, you don't have to do anything else a part from insert the ring wich will consent you to hang it to chain.
I hope this tutorial will like you and you would like to realize some beautiful charm.
Have a nice day!!
Giò
