Stay at Home with Craft on the Run

Good morning how are you? I am here to share my first layout using the A4 style scrapping/ journalling layout for Craft on the Run.

I am starting to fall in love with this scale...

You cant over think it and worry about using everything, and on the plus side if you hate your handwriting when it comes to the journalling, pop on the computer and type way and then print, alternatively like this layout I needed some Covid graphics for my diary....

Whats better than that?

So made a couple of covid graphics then made them into a couple of sizes and printed away....

Now onto the cut file, scaling it to the A4 size, I cut out all the letters that I want to make into shaker boxes with little covids and glitter. And then the outside letters back to the white.

So you will end up with this...

So add transparency to the letters you want as shaker boxes now the next bit takes a little bit of time and can get a fiddly but its worth take the time to do it so glitter wont escape your shaker box, small bits of foam tape around the edges of the transparency.

Now take the backing off the foam mount first then fill your shakers with little covid cut out and some glitter, mini stones, prills. Use a little scoop or spoon to add them into your shaker.

So to help with your placement on the background, put an A4 sheet under your cut file then stick your background over the cut file and stick, spend a little time pressing your foam mount onto your background.

Add a photo with a little paper bag underneath it using some foam tape to help level it out with the cut file.

Add some glass domes from Uniquely Creative scattered around over the top of the covid cut outs, I love how they magnify little details in the print out. Use Xpress it Glue as it drys clear and its super strong.
