Yesterday we talked about how glue dots can become a focal point for grouping sequins. Well, today the finished card appears from these groupings. If you don’t know what to create simply group small things and make it happen. Here are the directions: Grab a white thick piece of cardstock. Cut in half (at 4Continue reading “Small items become part of a larger whole.”

Glue dots can be used to group items.
Just when you thought the mini glue dots were small and they couldn’t do more, here is another idea. Take your paper piercer and place a glue dot at the end of it.

Sometimes it’s the handwritten portion that someone will treasure. So today I am encouraging you to keep a kitContinue reading “Sometimes easy is what it takes.”
