Polyshrink colored with Polychromos

Good morning to you all!!! 

Here is Giò........ today I want to show you how realize some delicious charms for your jewels.

The technique is the Polyshrink colored with Polychromos.

It is simple and fast and you don't need to be good in coloring so this is a technique that everybody can try.

This is the list of supplies you will need:

Polyshrink

Sand Block

Stamps I used  
Penguin Love
 Birdie Love     
Penguin Trio

Staz On Ink

Polychromos

Johnson's baby oil or if you prefer Mineral  Oil

Scissor

Heat tool

Diamond Glaze or other gloss

First of all you need to sand the Polyshrink surface, in this way the ink will adhere it better.

With Staz On stamp your image on Polyshrink.

 You can color with Polychromos as you prefer, I usually use at least two colors
to take depth to the image.....

 Continue to color and don't exaggerate, remember that when Polyshrink reduce
themselves the colors saturate.

Now with a stump wet with oil blend the colors as they merge in.

 Cut the image carefully.

Punch the top and don't use a too small punch because the hole will grow smaller.

Heat the Polyshrink with the heat tool that will grow smaller. As you heat it the piece will crumple.....
don't be afraid, it will be normal again at the end of the process......

Then to help yourself you can put an acrylic block as you turn the heat tool off.

To protect and polish the surface use a gloss.

Here are my charms ready..... aren't they too cute?

I realized a bracelet, but you can also realize earrings, necklaces and more else!!!

I really hope that this way to use the stamps will like you and my tutorial will be helpful.

Sul lato lungo piegate alle misure indicate.







On the long side score at the indicate mesures of the photo.











Ruotate il cartoncino sul lato corto e piegate secondo le misure indicate.







Rotate the cardstock on the short side and score at the indicated mesures.











Ora con le forbici tagliate come indicato nella foto.







Now with the scissors cut as indicated in the photo.







Dopo il taglio questo è il risultato.







After the cut this will be the result.











Con l'aiuto di un cutter o delle forbici, tagliate una finestra lasciando per ogni lato un margine di 1/4.







With the help of a cutter or of the scissors, cut a window leaving for each side a 1/4 border.











Ora tagliate un pezzo di acetato di 1 3/4 x 5 7/8 e incollatelo sulla finestra con del nastro biadesivo.







Now cut a piece of acetate of 1 3/4 x 5 7/8 and stick it on the window with a double side adhesive tape.











Rivoltate in cartoncino e aggiungete il nastro biadesivo come nella foto.







Turn over the cardstock and add a double side adhesivee tape as in the photo.











Per il top tagliate un pezzo di cartoncino di 6 1/2 x 6 e piegate sul lato lungo a 5 3/4.







For the top cut a piece of 6 1/2 x 6 of cardstock and score at 5 3/4 on the long side.











Lungo la linea di piegatura usate il nastro biadesivo per unire il top e la parte che contiene le candeline.







On the score line put the double side adhesive to bind the top and the lightcandle holder.











Ora la vostra card portacandeline è pronta e voi potete decorarla come più vi piace.  







Now your lightcandle holder card is ready and you can decorate it as you like the most.

For this creation I used the super cute Whiff of Joy stamps from Princess collection.

For this work you will need:

Lunch paper bag (mine is 4 5/8 x 8 5/8)

Ivory cardstock

Black cardstock

Patterned paper

Whiff of Joy Cinderella Stamp

Whiff of Joy Snow White Stamp (for the sentiment)
Whiff of Joy Good Luck border die

Magnetic disc

Embellishment as you want

Paper trimmer

Adhesive double sided tape

Cut at 5 3/4 (cm 14,5)

Cut two pieces of Kraft cardstock

4 7/8 x 9  -  score at 6 1/8  (cm 12,5x23 - score at 15,5)

4 7/8 x 6 (cm 15x12,5)

Cut three pieces of Black cardstock

4 3/4 x 6 (cm 12x15)

4 3/4 x 5 7/8 (cm 12x14,5)

4 3/4 x 2 3/4 (cm 12x7)

Cut three pieces of different patterned (these are My Mind's Eye from Vanity Fair collection)

4 5/8 x 5 7/8 (cm 11,5x14,5)

4 5/8 x 5 3/4 (cm 11,5x14)

4 5/8 x 2 5/8 ( 11,5x6,5)

Now you can stick all the layers.

Before stick the matting patterned on the Kraft flap, remember to stick a magnetic half disc.

To put in a correct way the second magnetic half disc, you leave it magnetize with the other already stick.

After peel off the protective film of the adhesive you must press down the flap and the magnetic disc is perfect positioned.

Now you can decorate the gift paper bag as you want.

This is the opened bag.

Goodmorning to all, today I want to show you how is simple to create your own background with the newest Whiff Of Joy clear stamps.

This is the list of supplies you will need:

Ivory Cardstock

Essential Background Spot & Dots

Essential Background Spot & Dots II

Versamark Ink Pad

White Embossing Powder

Heat tool

Ink pads of some colors

Blending tool or sponge

The most important steps are three and they will be repeated of every background you want to create.

As first we ink up you stamp with Versamark then we emboss  it with White embossing powder.

The third step is the colouring with a color of your choice, this will consent the colouring of the cardstock, leaving clearly the embossed motive.

Clean up softly with a baby whipe on your cardstock, this will clean the emboss details from left color.

I hope I gave you an idea that likes you and inspires.

Have a fabulous day.
