Clear Scraps Ornament Making Tutorial by Pinky Hobbs

     Merry Christmas Clear Scraps friends!!! 

Pinky here with another handmade ornament project today. 

I am really in the ornament making mood and when I found these mini Expressions from Clear Scraps in my pile of goodness I thought it would be PERFECT to create even more fun ornaments.

Step 1. Remover protective film from the back of the Expressions. Leaving the front film in tact.

Step 3. Take Bell Mini Album or any wintery design from Clear Scraps, remove both sides of protective film. 

Step 4. Using embossing adhesive- apply embossing enamel or powder to edges on the adhesive.

Step 5. GENTLY and slowly heat set using embossing gun. Just lightly place heat on and remove quickly, working your way around the Clear Scraps acrylic. If it begins to warp immediately remove heat then press gently with finger or tweezers.
