Dreamweaver Stencils and Ranger's Stickles Dry Glitter...We Just Sparkle Together!



The Dream Team has a big day today! Not only are we into week three of our Pinterest Inspired challenge, we are also playing with Ranger's Stickles Dry Glitter in the mix! We've had so much fun playing with jars of sparkly goodness, that we want to share the fun with two lucky crafters!

 
Just visit everyone on the list below, and leave comments for everyone. Two winners* will be randomly selected and announced Thursday, July 4th...what a great day for a celebration! Each prize package includes a mix of five Ranger Stickles Dry Glitter, a mix of six Dreamweaver Stencils, and jar of Dreamweaver Translucent Paste, and a Palette Knife for spreading. If you want to add to the fun, play along with our Pinterest challenge and link your own creation to the linkytool on the Dream It Up! blog before July 1st for a chance to win this month's stencil prize. Here's the list of sparkly-Pinteresting players:


Now, let me share my creation with you!


Such a happy color!
You can find my Pinterest  inspiration piece for this project HERE. I love the look of colored glass, glowing from an inner light...in this case, a flameless votive candle. My creation began its life as a Starbuck's Frappuccino bottle, which if you check out Pinterest, is a frequent inspiration for others. I pasted the Dreamweaver Black-eyed Susans stencil in Translucent paste over a couple of acetate sheets. Once dry, I used Q-tip precision applicators to apply Dreamweaver Color Solutions to the designs. I used a glue marker to apply the adhesive that would adhere the Ranger Stickles Dry Glitter to the back side of the panels. These panels can be curled up and tucked inside the bottle, along with some Dew Drops (or glass marbles), and a flameless votive light. I die cut a portion of the panel for the circle on the lid, and completed the look with a Ranger Stickle Dry Glitter embellished paper flower, and gorgeous May Arts ribbons (which by the way, were spritzed with Memories Mists ink through the flower stencil). Quick, easy, and cheap...the perfect housewarming or hostess gift. If you are on Pinterest, and you'd like to follow Dreamweaver, you can view our board HERE, and you can pin your own Dreamweaver creations HERE. If you'd like to follow my creations on Pinterest, you'll find it HERE.

WHOA! This is wonderful Pam! I never would have thought of the Translucent embossing paste for this, but it is a great idea for the battery operated votive to shine through.

very creative! Love that I can upcycle with this project.

rose s. said...

such a pretty idea for doing patio lights - I was wondering if you can paste directly onto the glass jars. would a real flame votive cause problems with the paste? thx for sharing once again a great project idea.

Kolton's Mama said...

i love it nice to see other ways to use the product and not just cards

Sue D said...

Very pretty with the glittery flowers.

JD/ Jill said...

Very clever, beautiful, creation. Thank you so much for the great instructions on how to do this.

Sandy (Cheesy) said...

Pam, I have never thought to use the translucent paste on plastic. This is such a clever idea. Who doesn't love candlelight? flamed or flameless? LoL Great idea.
