Today is World Card making day and as a part of Elmers #GluenGlitter I decided to make a Halloween card using Elmers CraftBond™ Glue Spots Pop-up Medium and Elmers CraftBond™ Glue Spots Thin Medium. I also tried out the new Elmer’s X-TREME Glue Stick . I had a great time shopping for the supplies and I enjoyed making my card. Now I need to send it to someone!!!hahahahaha!!
If you want to take a look at my shopping trips click HERE.
This was such an easy card to make I have a tutorial for you!!
Here are the supplies!!
Elmers CraftBond™ Glue Spots Pop-up Medium and Elmers CraftBond™ Glue Spots Thin Medium
Scrapbook paper of your choice
thin ribbon or twine
Glitter
various embelishments
Blank card and envelope
Some I used and some I didn’t but I bought them anyways!! Not pictured is the Black glitter I used it was from my stash! Also I used a corner rounder punch but this is optional!
This is what I dug out of my stash!
Definitely need a paper trimmer.
I used a blank card purchased at Walmart. I like this option because then you always have an envelope that is sized for the card!
I trimmed my paper to fit the card!
This is when I broke out the Elmer’s X-TREME Glue Stick ! I have to say I love this!!
I secured the paper to the front of the card and made sure the edges sealed nicely.
I trimmed the corners with the rounded corner punch. If you dont want the corners rounded then leave them!
I pulled out a rhinestone spider web and placed it in the upper left corner!
I cut 9 1″ pieces of thin black ribbon. These became the legs of my spiders!! You’ll see in a minute.
I used the Elmers CraftBond™ Glue Spots Pop-up Medium I placed 3 pieces of ribbon on the glue spot.
I angled them so they looked like spider legs! You can trim these after you place them on the card so they don’t have to be perfect.
I repeated the process for the other 2 spiders and then placed them on the lower right part of the card.
See Naked Spiders!!
I then sprinkled the dots with glitter (thanks to Sara at Momendeavors.com)
I patted the glitter down so it would stick all over the glue dot!
And Viola!! Glittery Spiders!! Thanks to Elmers #gluenglitter for the idea!!!
I added a few more embellishments and was done!!
Put a cute tiny spider on the envelope back flap. Just because it was cute!
Heres a look at the finished card and the envelope back!!!
And here’s a closer look at those cute spiders!!!
This is such an easy project it would be great for the kiddos!!!
