Back To School Acrylic Letter Box

Hello! It's Jennifer and I'm happy to share one of the fun acrylic boxes from Clear Scraps!  My kids go back to school in approximately three weeks (ack!) so I've been thinking about teacher gifts!  The Acrylic Letter Box is perfect to add some goodies for your favorite teacher! And afterward, he/she can use it to hold classroom essentials!

I covered each side with patterned paper using my favorite adhesive: Beacon 3-in-1!  It's perfect for using on acrylic!  I then added embellishments including an apple and title I cut from my Silhouette.

Using my 6 Inch Star Mascil, I added some texture to my apple using some white texture paint.

I am a big fan of stars so I wanted to create a bonus card! I simply cut a 4×5 inch pieces of acrylic from one of the 12×12 Acrylic sheets. I then used my Star Mascil and the texture paste again. This time, I added a sprinkle of glitter before lifting up the Mascil.
