Stamp or photocopy
your image onto a piece of acetate. Run through a Xyron machine
or apply an adhesive sheet to the "up: side. Center ornament
over the image, making sure hole for hanger is in correct position. |
| |
| Turn the piece
over, glass on the bottom and reverse side of acetate up. pour
a puddle of Future on the piece. |
 |
| |
 |
Sprinkle with
mica powder (Pearl EX Brilliant Gold and Super Copper were used
here.) |
| |
| Swirl paint
brush through powders to blend and cover piece, then sprinkle
with glitter. |
 |
| |
 |
Set a piece
of tissue on top and blot with paper towel to remove any bubbles.
Allow to dry ( you can speed this up with a heat gun, but be
careful not to get it too close - you could melt the acetate
or break the glass with the heat). |
| |
| Cut the piece
away from the excess acetate and tissue. |
 |
| |
 |
Add another
coat of Future to the back to seal. |
| |
| Poke a hole
through the acetate over the hole in the glass. Add a ribbon
hanger. |
 |
| |
| Variation:
Instead of doing the Crystal technique on the back, simply coat
with clear glitter adhesive and sprinkle glitter over - allow
to dry. |
