Send It Clear by Clear Scraps~

Hi guys!

I have a Send It Clear Card by Clear Scraps to show you today!

  Super easy, to use these acrylic cards and so impressive!

The paper is Authentique.  The paper is adhered to the backside of the acrylic,

 so the outside is shiny acrylic.  The sentiment can be hand written on the 

inside of the card.

The paper is adhered, to the acrylic, using Zip Dry by Beacon.

The card kit comes with a see through envelope~love that! 

Many different card kits to choose from, all beauties!!!

This one is called Ornate Send it Clear Card.

*****************

Supplies~

Fabric Stiffener (Helmar)

Vintage label

Jar of Peanuts

twine

burlap bags

wooden scoop

empty water bottle

Project Instructions:

1.   Remove the tie cord from the burlap bag.

2.   Put an empty plastic water bottle into the burlap bag.

3.       Apply the fabric stiffener to the burlap bag.   I used a large paint brush.

4.   After the bag is really saturated with the fabric stiffener, sit it down until it is standing on it’s own.

5.       Let it dry.  It took mine about 4 hours to be completely dry.

6.       Cut off the top of the plastic bottle with a box cutter.

7.       Decorate the front and add the twine.

8.       When you are ready to serve or give as a gift insert the wooden scoop with peanuts!!
