Paper Bead video ....

Hi Stampers :

So excited that you are here today ..

Today's video we will be making paper beads .

Making paper beads are  sooo Fabulous because we can use Stampin'Up! fabulous Designer paper .

 If  you remember that I  gave  all my Glitter Queens and Shelli & Sara  a special scissor charm  HERE  and  adding the paper bead is what made them sooo Fabulous  .

Dawn's Side note :What was  really  cute  is  when I showed Jessie  the scissor charms with  the paper bead she  totally freaked out  and said  "WOW these are  better  than your  other scissor charms, Cause they go with the whole idea of paper crafting/ stamping "  She is  sooo  sweet :)

 I also added  a few paper beads to  the shaker card I posted HERE  What a fun way  to  add  alittle  something different to your projects .

Here are the supplies I will be using today  in my video :

Pawsitively Prints designer paper # 118060

cut at 7" long

Jessie  used   newspaper  and magazine paper  to make hers  and she  cut hers at 10" long BUT since the designer paper is thicker  I cut mine at 7" long

Just play around  to find the  perfect length  for your paper beads .

I will be using  a piece a cardstock as my  ruler today, Cut larger than the designer paper to get the triangle  shape  for your bead

You will also need

Tombow Multi glue # 110755

Crystal Effects #101055

tooth pick ( local store )

paint  brush ( I am using  one I found  at a $1 store )

 and of  course grab your

Mat pack #105826 ( foam one)

Have fun and Thanks so much   for watching today :)

P.S I tried to voom in as close as I could  without my camera  getting blurry  since these beads  are sooo tiny. Hopefully you will get the idea.  

 

 

Until later.. Happy Stampin!

Your bead idea is great! You are so clever. One question, do they come off the toothpick easy so that you can add them to a piece of jewerly? Thanks so much for sharing!

Shelia: Yes as long as you keep the Crystal Effects only on the bead part and not get any on the toothpick. Hope this makes sense :)

How cute is that!! I'm gonna try these today. Where might I find those clasps for the scissor charms? Or, is that some information you don't share? I love mine that I got at our DL meeting of a lifetime. I want to make some b/c I keep loosing my paper snips at workshops. Thank you SO much, Dawn. You are the BEST!!!

Those are so cute. I am not sure I have as much patience as you and Jessie do to create such great projects with them. Love the necklaces and charms! So cute!

I am an avid jewelry maker as well and these are just too cute Dawn!! I really enjoy your videos and you have such a sweet personality!! I am definately going to have to try these!

i love your videos - I have already made some. My tip if it is to go fast, I roll the beads in Versamark and emboss with Clear Stampin 'Emboss Powder.

Great idea Dawn. Do you have directions for the scissor charms? Would love to know how those are made.
