Bloom: Clear Scraps Garden Acrylic Border

Hello friends! Jennifer here today on the blog to share a layout I created using the Garden Acrylic Border and the 6 inch Wood Grain Mascil.  Warmer weather has hit Central Illinois which puts me in the mood to do some spring scrapping!

Here's how I embellished my acrylic border! First I applied a small amount of alcohol ink to the applicator. I use small circles to cover the entire face of the acrylic. You can also use a "dabbing" motion.

After drying (which is quick!),  I used washi tape to secure my Mascil in place.  Using modeling paste, I applied a small amount and spread in a downward motion until even.  I did the same process for the top of the border as well. You can always use a 12 inch Mascil but I wanted the more fine details of the 6 inch.

Here are some close ups of my acrylic border! I added in a few coordinating brads, sequins, and stickers.
