Tips & Tricks Monday- Glitter Alpha Thickers

By
Welcome!! I have something so fun to share with you today. I found these awesome DIY Thickers by American Crafts the other day and I couldn't wait to use them. If you haven't seen or used them before OMG you will love these. You can customize the Thickers any way you like. All you do is peel the top layer and you can use glitter, microbeads, or tinsel. I used glitter for my project. Its perfect for those times that you want a certain color letter but don't want to go buy a whole alpha set for just one project.

The end result:
I used a fine gold glitter to match my layout and I also went ahead and added another color by using Dimensional Glue.

I hope your enjoyed today's project too. If you have a questions or suggestions, please leave it in the comments. Also, you can join up to our Facebook group: Scrapbook Blessings Club for more fun, games, inspiration, tips and techniques. Thank you for stopping by and have a blessed day! SBC Design Team Member

    Such a great idea I have chipboard letters. I'll just run them upside down through my Xyron, then glitter them. Love it! TFS.

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
