TOP TEN Embellishments!


My post today is my "TOP TEN" Embellishments to make using Sakura Crystal Lacquer and Terri Sproul Mixers.
NUMBER ONE: BOTTLE CAPS
Save bottle caps, adhere images to the bottle cap with a dab of Crystal Lacquer.  Add a thick coat of Lacquer and set aside to dry overnight.  Above there is a hint of color --- Terri Sproul Mixers - Tanzanite Pearl and Pink Sapphire Pearl. 
The bottle cap on the right is dressed up with a ring of gold seed beads added to the rim. 

NUMBER TWO: ORNAMENTS
These could be used on cards, packages or even as tree ornaments. Use Fancy Pants Frames and Graphic 45 papers cut to fit, cover with Crystal Lacquer.  Set aside to dry 24 hours.

NUMBER THREE: CARD TRIM
First Image bottom to top:  Add VLVS! Miracle Tape to the edge of card, remove protective covering, add trinkets and fill in with seed beads. Cover with Crystal Lacquer, set aside to dry 24 hours. Learned this from Terri Sproul on one of her Monday Night Shows!
NUMBER FOUR: CREATIVE PAPERCLAY®  Objects created with Creative Paperclay can be painted with Crystal Lacquer mixed with Terri Sproul Mixers. Dries in about 20 minutes. Face and Dolls - Gold and Paris - Pink Sapphire Pearl.

NUMBER FIVE: CHARMS 
Silver charms can be made any color you desire with Crystal Lacquer mixed with Terri Sproul Mixers - Tanzanite Pearl and Pink Sapphire Pearl.
NUMBER SIX: GAME PEICES SCRABBLE
Game pieces make great embellishments, above Scrabble pieces are painted the Crystal Lacquer mixed with Terri Sproul Mixers - Pink Shimmer.
NUMBER SEVEN: GAME PEICES BINGO
Bingo numbers topped with Crystal Lacquer are another idea for an super embellishment. 
NUMBER EIGHT: BRADS
Take ordinary brads and make them glitter.  Paint a dab of Lacquer on the top of the brads and dip them in Terri Sprouls Ultra Fine Glitter.
NUMBER NINE: STEAMPUNK HEARTS
With Creative Paperclay® cut small hearts, paint them burgundy and dry. Cover with Crystal Lacquer, add watch parts and gears. Set aside to dry overnight. 
NUMBER TEN: BUTTONS
Don't have the right color of buttons?  Then paint white buttons with Crystal Lacquer mixed with Terri Sproul Mixers - above are Shimmer Violet.
