30 Days Of Holiday Project Ideas w/ Xyron- Goodwill Find!

Welcome to Xyron's 30 Days Of Holiday Project Ideas!

It's my turn to be all Xyron-crafty and today I have a BIG project

to share- this 13X20 frame I found at Goodwill for 1.99 and turned 

it into this Holiday Fun Dry Erase Board. 

And I took photos the entire process so you can make your own!

I even photographed the 1.99 sticker- because I was super excited!

 First I took the woodgrain frame and painted it gold. 

 As it dried, I started the dry erase board areas. 

I used my Crafter's Companion embossing folder (amazeballs!)

and cardstock. 

 That was for the middle "window pane".

I used the Maya Road Alphabet- running them through

the Xyron® 5" Creative Station™with the top side down. 

 So that I could apply the glitter!! WOOT! Glitter!

 I trimmed out these American Crafts Peppermint Express 

journaling cards on the 12X12 sheet- they were perfect

for each window which was around 3X5. 

 I trimmed them out to 3.5X5.5 and matches up Clear Scraps acrylic. 

 I ran each piece of paper through the Xyron® 5" Creative Station™

 Then laid the acrylic onto the sticker side. 

 Then peeled off the other side of the protective film. 

 I used Xyron® 3/8" High Tack Adhesive Dots to hold the

dry erase boards I created into place while I put the backing 

for the frame back on. I also used the Xyron® 3/8" High Tack Adhesive Dots

on the inside of the back of the frame to keep it all in place!

 Then I adhered the snowflakes and letters on. 

 And added some pearl dots and a big fluffy ribbon to hang it. 

 I was excited to hang it and couldn't resist when

a sweet 9 year old came to visit and asked for it.

 Of course I gave it to the sweet cupcake! :) 

I hope you enjoyed my project idea! I was excited to share it!

Clear Scraps And DCVW With A PRIZE Package! :)

Good morning friends and welcome to the Clear Scraps + DCVW

cross promotion with prizes of course!

I project today is this Clear Scraps Send It Clear Acrylic card using

DCVW Woven Paper inside. I love love the texture!

 Lately I have been obsessed with GOLD spray paint (for real it's bad people)

and I felt the need to just spray paint the crap out of this card! LOL

I used the Damask Mascil from CS on the Woven Paper and 

also on the outside doors to the card. 

 I used a crystal ornament I created for the cover. 

 And added tons of snowy glitter to the edges. 

 I love this card, the whole concept of the Send It Clear line is amazing.
