DIY Glitter Dots | Tutorial

Hey friends,  Laura here today with a fun tutorial to share today, and a few tips along the way.

The other day I thought I would try to make my own "enamel dots" which I have done before and shared here.  That time I used Glossy Accents and Nail Polish.  This me I thought I would try to mail glittery dots.  So I grabbed some Stickles, waxed paper and a stencil with small circles on it.

You might be able to tell my first mistake right off the hop, here.  I didn't choose a stencil with perfect circles. Doh!  Oh well.

I randomly squirted some Stickles into several of the circles of the mask, making a tiny little mound on the waxed paper.

Like this.

Then I lifted the stencil straight up to avoid catching my Stickles on the stencil and wrecking their shape.  Be sure to wash your stencil right away at this point.

Then I put my little dots aside to dry.  Right aside, as in across the room.  I am famous for putting papers on top of my drying Stickles!  Please tell me it is not just me!

The next day, I picked each little dot off of the waxed paper, they came off perfectly and easily.  And they are not overly misshapen seeing as I started with the wrong stencil.  In the photo above they are pictured in a little dish.  I think these little beautifies would look perfect on a card or layout.  A little drop of adhesive from a glue pen will stick them down just perfectly.

In the interest of full disclosure, I will tell you that I also tried a few other stencil shapes.  FAIL!  They were too brittle when they dried. Live and learn!

Here is a run down of our Sketch-y Friday rules.  Just link up your creations in our sidebar to be entered into a random draw for our monthly prize.    You have until April 29th, at midnight to participate in any of this month's sketch challenges, each linkup tool will remain open until that date!  You may take some artistic license with your adaptation of the sketches, however if you choose to use a double page sketch for a single page layout you may only enter once per sketch, not once per side.

If you are playing along with more than one challenge you will need to link each of them up via a separate blog post for the link up tool to work. (International participants may be required to pay some shipping fees.)  Good luck, we cannot wait to see what you create!

*note - If you are playing along using Flickr the team will no longer be leaving comments, due to changes in Flickr policies and passwords.  However, we will be checking out your entries for sure and you are definitely eligible for the prize draw. Our apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.
