July 30, 2010, Newsletter Issue #253: What to do

Tip of the Week

If you`re looking for a new surface to try your stamping on, then this one is probably for you! It`s also a great way of using any old CDs sitting around your house (especially those ones you`ve received as "junk mail" in your letterbox).

Just take a CD and break it - that`s right BREAK IT! This is a job best done outside, and a hammer is a good piece of equipment to have for this. It should break into some nicely shaped pieces. You can then decorate it with inks and embossing powders, you can even set special embellishments into the embossing powder (ultra-thick embossing is good to use for this). If you want to make small holes so that you can hang your piece, or have things hanging off it, then just drill holes with a very small drill bit before decorating.
