Teddy Bo Top Tips 2012!!!

Well did you have a good time over Christmas and New Year???

We hope Santa brought you loads of new crafting goodies and you're itching to use them.

Today we have a fab tutorial by Renee all the way from the US of A - sorry I'm still in panto rhyming mode lol!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was thought this technique a while back and used it to make some cute winter scene cards, and thought i would give it another go but with a bit of a twist.

 You will need a xyron machine or sticker maker, you colored image and some stampendous embossing powder (kaleidoscope transparent), and a used dryer sheet the more used even better! lol

 color your image as brightly as you can.

  Run it through your sticker maker /Xyron machine face down....make sure you rub the paper with the sticky stuff on to the image a little extra to make sure it sticks and comes off with out pulling up some of the sticky.

  Lay the used dryer sheet over the top of your image and pat down.

  Sprinkle embossing powder over image, if you don't have embossing powder you can just use  fine martha stewart crystal glitter, you will just have to skip the heating part of the process.

 trim off excess dryer sheet

 run through your cuttlebug or cutting machine if you want to add a shape to your image...

  using a heat tool, heat up the image till you can see it becoming more clear, but be careful it could catch on fire if you do it to long. It never happened to me...I'm just saying..........

then add your image to your project ! cute winter type feel to your image! have fun and experiment!

Hugs

Renee
