Maggie Holmes Plexiglas Project Kit- class kit instructions

 

I hope you enjoy this project as much as I did! It's fast and simple to create and you will have lots of left-overs to create other projects as well!

hugs!

  1. From the silver metallic cardstock cut two strips measuring 1/4” x 10” and two strips measuring 1/4” x 8”. Adhere these to the edges of the Plexiglas piece to create a border or frame around it.
  2. Adhere a 4x6 photo to the right side of the Plexiglas piece about 3/4” in from the right edge of the Plexiglas and 3/4” down from the top edge.
  3. Cut a strip of the white lace ribbon 8” in length. Attach to Plexiglas to the left side of the photo.
  4. Cut a strip of the green patterned paper 1” x 8” and attach to project on the left side of the photo, overlapping the white lace strip.
  5. Cut a strip of the blue die cut patterned paper 1/2” x 8” and attach to project overlapping the green strip and the photo.
  6. Use gold metallic paint to paint the tree branch and set aside to dry.
  7. Use blue paint to paint the chipboard bird and set aside to dry.
  8. Cover the chipboard wing with glue and then pour silver glitter on it. Shake of excess and set aside to dry.
  9. Adhere the sheer office label to the left side of the project.
  10. Use black ink to stamp the “Love” stamp onto one of the silk-screened labels and then cut it out. Attach it to the center of the sheer office label.
  11. Stamp the circle stamp onto the purple sticky note sheet and cut out. Write caption on this piece and attach it to the project as shown.
  12. Attach gold branch to the left side of the project. Adhere wing to bird and attach bird sitting on top of the branch.
  13. Attach two buttons to the project above and below the “Love” label.
  14. Apply silver rub-on flourish at the bottom of the photo.

Use gold letter stickers to spell “So Sweet” (or other title of your choice) at the bottom right corner of the photo

 

You can also purchase a 8x10 frame from the store (or I get mine at the dollar store) and put your Plexiglas inside of a frame to sit on a mantel or hang on a wall!
