    Great video - thanks! I’ve been trying to both figure out what to do with all of my gel prints…and for something to add to my products at markets I’m doing. I’m thinking that it might be easier to glue the blanks down first and then cut them out? Also - a Dremel or other rotary tool would come in handy for buffing the edges (and sanding the finding hole!) Lots of ideas you’ve given me - thank you!

    • @craftingareality6282
      @craftingareality6282 Год назад

      I do use a dremel sometimes but on my videos I try to show how stuff can be done with minimal equipment. I have collaged a big sheet of tissue paper together and then glued the blanks down and cut them out with an exacto knife. Either way works fine.

    I would recommend Sketchbox over Scrawlrbox for you simply because you live in the US. For anyone living in the EU or UK, I’d recommend Scrawlrbox. Both companies typically have really great products. The only difference is the time and money for shipping.
