UTEE Brightz Heart
(1) Pour equal amounts of Clear
UTEE and Fuchsia UTEE Brightz in the
Melting Pot.
(2) Put lid on top and
let melt.
(3) Once melted, add a
sprinkle of White UTEE. Let melt.
(4) Carefully mix with
the Kool Toolz Spatula.
(5) Pour into heart
mold (ice cube tray). Remove once
cooled. Tip: Make several hearts at once
to use for other projects!
Wrinkle-free Distress Tags
(1) Rub colors of Distress Ink
on the Non-Stick Craft Sheet. Just place
the ink next to one another and not on
top of one another, as you want to keep
the ink colors as pristine as possible.
(2) Spritz ink with
water.
(3) Press paper on the
inks. Turn over and dry with the Heat
Tool. (Option: blot the wetter areas
with a paper towel, which creates
wonderful ink spots and helps the paper
dry faster!)
(4) Note how the
Distress Inks, when wet, create
different tones of the same color.
(5) Lightly tap dry
inked paper over remaining ink drops on
Craft Sheet to build layers of color.
Dry with Craft Tool.
(6) Repeat until
desired look is achieved.
(7) Spritz water into
your hand and flick onto inked tags. Let
sit for approximately 10 seconds,
allowing the water to lighten/remove ink
to create a color lifted effect with a
paper towel.
Finishing the project
(1) On smaller tag, stamp image
with Archival Jet Black ink. Let dry.
(2) On stamped image,
fill in “paint pots” and edge of “paint
brush” with Adirondack Acrylics. Let
dry. Tip: Use generously and swirl in a
circular motion. These paints were
designed for dimensional use and will
add a realistic look to the image!
(3) Cut out red
cardstock a quarter inch larger than the
small tag to frame. Attach to small tag.
Layer red “tag” to large tag.
(4) Attach UTEE Brightz
heart to front of tag with Wonder Tape.
(5) Punch hole through
all tags and attach fibers.
