GLUE VINYL

with Crafter's Pick Incredibly Tacky Glue

by .Delores F. Ruzicka, SCD

Materials Needed:

• Crafter's Pick™ "Incredibly Tacky" glue

• 3 Ziplock sandwich bags

• Freezer Paper, 2 pieces 12" x12"

General Project Instructions:

1: Pour about ½ cup of Incredibly tacky glue into each Zip Lock Bag. To the first bag, add 1 teaspoon of the light colored paint. To the second bag, add 1 teaspoon of the medium colored paint and to the third bag, add 1 teaspoon of the dark colored paint. Seal each bag. Knead each bag until the paint is mixed well into the glue.

2: Have one piece of the freezer paper laying on a flat surface with the shiny/wax side up. Cut off a bottom corner of one of the bags, squeeze out the mixture in a random motion onto the freezer paper. Repeat this step using each of the other 2 bags. Place the other sheet of freezer paper shiny side down onto the mixture. Smooth out the mixture by rubbing your hands over the top piece of freezer paper, you will want the mixture to be thinned out but not too thin. Besure that the area covered with the glue/paint mixture is the size you will need plus at least an extra inch in all directions, example: if you are covering a 5"x7" frame, make the "glue vinyl" at least 7" x9". The scraps are wonderful for small projects such as jewelry.

3: Remove the top piece of paper. If all of the two pieces of freezer paper are not covered with an even coat of mixture or if you want to add more of any one color, apply more mixture in your choice of color. When you like the look, lay each piece of paper flat till the mixture dries. It is best to leave it overnight.

4: When the mixture is completely dry, it can be pulled off the freezer paper and will look like vinyl. Remove the "glue vinyl" from the freezer paper. The vinyl can be cut with fancy scissors into shapes and sizes or punched with decorative punches . Attach the vinyl to the PresOn mat according to the directions with the mat.

Glue vinyl must be sealed with a spray sealer if used where it would come in contact with water.
