Watch the full YouTube tutorial here:


Supplies you'll need:

Frame wax seal stamp | Low-temp glue gun | Parchment paper | Ice pack | Krylon Gold Leafing Pen | Handmade paper | Scrapbooking paper | Paper clip

 

 

How to make them: 

While your glue gun is heating up, place your frame wax stamp on an icepack. If the metal is cold, it won’t stick to the glue.

Once the hot glue is warm pour it onto the parchment paper in the same shape as the frame stamp (if the stamp is a rectangle shape, then pour it into a rectangle). Then press with the cold frame stamp. Allow to cool for 30-60 seconds. Once cool, remove stamp from the seal.

Next, use an exacto or scissors to trim off the excess glue and cut out the center of the frame. All that should be left is the actual frame. Then use a Kyrlon Gold Leafing Pen to add gold to the frame seal. Allow to dry for 5-20 minutes. Once ink is totally dry, add a tiny dot of hot glue to the end of a paper clip and then add the finished frame seal to the clip. Allow glue to cool and then set aside.

For the card, start with handmade paper. I started with a 5” x 3” size and folded it in half. Then cut out a rectangle from the front flap of the card to create a window. The rectangle I cut out was 1.5” x 1.875”. Then trim down scrapbooking paper of your choice (of course I always go with a floral theme) do fit just inside the handmade paper card. Use double sided tape to adhere it to the paper.

The last step is to write a little note inside and close it with the seal clip! Easy and super cute way to let someone know you love them!!
