Directions: |
|
 |
Step 1:
Gather your supplies. Choose the
rubber stamp(s) you want to use, cardstock, and coordinating micro
beads. Cut your base cardstock to 4 1/4 x 11", then fold in half so
the fold is on the top. |
 |
Step 2:
Cut and layer your coordinating
cardstock. I used a 4 x 5 1/4" black piece of cardstock and a
3 1/2 x 4 1/4" piece of pink cardstock.
|
 |
Step 3:
Stamp image. |
 |
Step 4:
Cut a Post It Note to fit the opening
of the Picture Window. Use the Post It note to mask the window
so you don't get any ink on it when you stamp the image. Stamp
the image, then use a permanent marker to color the edges of the
picture window. You can also run the edges against your ink
pad.
|
 |
Step 5:
Adhere paper punched shaped or
stickers to the inside of the picture window.
Apply adhesive around the frame. |
|
|
 |
Step 6:
Sprinkle micro beads into the middle
of the picture window. Try not to get any on the adhesive.
Gently fold over the picture window to secure it closed and get the
beads "captured" inside. Then adhere your Captured Beads
Picture Windows to your card! |
