Every Moment Pin by Pinky Hobbs

Good morning, Pinky here with a pin tutorial today.

If you think you can make jewelry from paper, well you can! :) 

Here is a step by step tutorial on making this pin.

Using Samantha Walker Orchard Harvest papers (6X6 pad works great)

Open Samantha Walker 8 Piece Tag Set in Design Studio (Silhouette Software).

Select entire group- Click UNGROUP

Delete all tags except the two chosen for pin.

Resize each tag to same size. 

Cut using Silhouette, remove from sticky mat.

Stamp Sentiment on middle of base (Samantha Walker  Retro Mod Clocks)

Using ink- "tarnish" around top layer of tag. 

Lay onto wax, parchment paper, or non-stick mat....coat top layer

thoroughly with Crackle Effects. (It will bend but you can straighten after it dries).

Coat base (not too thick) using Glastique or a clear coating.

 After they completely dry (overnight is suggested) adhere layers using strong adhesive. 

Lay between 2 books for '1-2 hours for very flat pin base. 

If you want all around sealing, turn pin over and coat again using 

Glastique or a clear coating, allow to dry additional 24 hours. 

 Add Liquid Pearl accents, using strong glass/acrylic adhesive-add crystal beads.

 Adhere pin back.

"Christmas Tree Snowflake" digital cutting file (available only at the Silhouette store online.)

This week alone, I will have 34 new digital die designs releasing in the Silhouette store online. The collection features both intricate and simple snowflakes...as well as themed snowflakes.  There are also several lace top tag sets, a few cards, some decorative pennant flags to help you decorate your home for holiday parties...and a lacy gift bag (this one made me smile to create as I thought of how many ways I could use this over the holidays...just imagine it with some bright colored tissue behind the lace cute out...squeal!)

"Card Doily Lace" digital cutting file (available only at the Silhouette store online.)

(The Silhouette store can only be accessed by those using a direct link from the Silhouette Studio software, which is provided with any Silhouette machine.) The easiest way to find these new designs, is to go to the "browse artists" tab in the blue bar at the top of the screen on the Silhouette store homepage, then click on the Samantha Walker logo to browse my portfolio.  These will be showing up in the store as they are loaded from the artists queue.
