Clear Scraps 12×12 Acrylic — Summer Rays

Hi everyone!  Laura here to share some summer sunshine with you today!

Do you have some summer pictures to scrap, but you feel like your stuck in a rut?

Whenever I feel like I want to do something a little different, I grab one

of the Clear Scraps 12×12 Acrylic sheets and then get creative with layers!

With the acrylic, you can play with so many different things!

I brushed some acrylic paint around the edges on this LO.

You can use alcohol inks or stamp with Staz On ink.

A lot of different options!  I also used the Clear Scraps

4×6 Sunrise Stencil to add a fun element to highlight the picture.

I used a yellow acrylic paint dauber to apply paint thru the

stencil directly onto the 12×12 acrylic sheet.  Then I

traced thru the stencil onto a piece of patterned paper

to create the center of the sunshine.  I inked the

edges of the paper to finish the "sunshine".

I really love how it turned out!  The peach color paper

behind the sunshine is a 9×9 square of paper adhered

down behind the LO.  It shows thru because of the

clear acrylic….love that!  Just make sure you

remove the protective coating layer on both sides of

the 12×12 sheet.  It peels off fairly easily, but keeps

your acrylic sheet protected until your ready to use it!

I also wanted to add another fun little element,

and the Clear Scraps Mini Shaker Shovel.

This adds a cute little embellishment….it's been

painted with acrylic paint, then inked around the

edges, and a few sequins added before it was glued

together.  I used the Clear Scraps Fall Sequins.

It looks a little like sand, don't you think?

Hope you enjoyed the project today!  I'm still trying

to decide if I want a title or journaling, so I've kept it

simple today.  Check out the store to grab your

own acrylic sheet to create something fun yourself!
