Mother’s Day Bracelet and Card Set

May 7, 2013 by Grace 2 Comments

Hello Epiphany friends, Grace here to share with you a quick but totally unique mother’s day gift.

We are in the business of memory preservation and for most of us, that means that we have a good supply of photos. Well in this gift, I’m transferring our love for our family and pictures into a stylish bracelet.

Scroll down and you can see my quick and easy tutorial in creating my personalized bracelet.

Supplies Used:

For the card:

Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Tool Pennant 25 SST-50
Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Accessories Bubble Caps Pennant 25 SSA-52
Cardstock- (white) Walmart; (others) WorldWin Papers
Pattern papers- (background dot) October Afternoon; (Pink floral) My Little Shoebox; (word strips and banners) Echo Park
Letter stickers- Basic Grey
Twine- Blossom, The Twinery
Circle punch- EK Success
Scallop circle die- Spellbinders
Adhesives- Creative Memories, Glue Arts

For the bracelet:

Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Tool Square 25 SST-38
Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Accessories Bubble Caps Square 25 SSA-40
Epiphany Crafts Metal Charms Double Square 25 38-46

Here’s some close ups….

And here’s a quick share on the easy way to recreate my bracelet…

First you’ll need to pick a photo to use for the charms. I chose a print from our family’s photo session, two years ago. You need to pick small photos or at least the faces of your family members are small enough to fit into the bubble stickers. I also bought a plain bracelet kit from Wal-Mart that have small rings that let me connect my charms to the bracelet chain.

Then you’ll punch out square shapes from the photo while adhering them onto the bubble stickers at the same time. *You might have to trim your photos a bit around the images so that you can fit the faces perfectly inside the square.

The last is adhering the square bubbles inside the metal charms and then using the rings to adhere the charms onto the bracelet.

I hope you enjoyed my share today and I wish all of the mothers out there a very happy Mother’s day.

Till next time. – Grace

American Crafts and Epiphany Crafts and a Little Snow White

April 17, 2013 by Jennie 7 Comments

Happy Hump Day!! This is Jennie!!

When I printed these photos I had no idea what paper to use since I still wanted to do a Snow White theme but I’m not a fan of the Disney paper out there. But this week we are playing with the Lucky Charm Collection by Dear Lizzy from American Crafts and these colors work great with my daughter’s photos.

For my Snow White embellishments I used images that I found on clothing tags and other places and used my Round 25 Tool with Metal Charms.

I used metal cutters to cut the loop and next to the Snow White I used a Round 14 bubble with American Crafts Paper. I splattered a little of gold and white mist around the layout.

I sprayed a bit of white shimmery mist on the mason jar that I got from on of the papers.

For this embellishment I used the jewelry hoop and added some ribbon.

This small Snow White was placed on a Metal Setting.

I made the title with Thickers, I wanted to use the black ones that come with the Lucky Charm pack but, I felt the layout needed more blue.

The journaling tag and the awesome title are from the die cut pack, I just sewed some ribbon and added some sequins and Round 14 bubbles with AC paper.

I hope you enjoyed this AC/EC Team Up!! It was incredibly fun for us.

Take Care!!

Jennie

Jewelry Charms Featuring Our Square 25 Tool

April 5, 2013 by Christina 4 Comments

Hello, Christina here today. I love to make jewelry pieces using the Epiphany Crafts Charms and today I want to share an idea for creating these beautiful jewelry charms using the Epiphany Crafts Square 25 tool.

Start by punching out two squares of white cardstock using the Epiphany Crafts Square 25 Tool and set aside. Pull out 2 or 3 colors of your favorite spray mists. I love the shimmer and bright colors of Heidi Sawpp’s Color Shine mists and chose to use those for my project. Add a few drops of each of your colors onto a craft mat. You can leave them as individual drops or blend them together for different looks.

Get the squares of cardstock you punched earlier and drop them into the mist. Wait until the edges of the cardstock have absorbed the mist before pulling the cardstock off the mat.

Use tweezers to remove the cardstock from the mist to reveal the beautiful pattern the mists created.

Allow the cardstock pieces to dry or use your heat tool to speed up the process. Add a Square 25 Bubble Cap to the top of each of the cardstock pieces and adhere to Square 25 Charm Settings.

You can add the charms to necklace chains, bracelets, keychains, etc. for a beautiful gift.

You can make gifts boxes using a Silhouette or other die cut machine and add a coordinating closure using the Round 14 Tool, Bubble Caps, Brad Settings and Basic Grey Magnetic Snaps.

Add a little bling to the center of the flower buttons.When I’m in the EC booth at the expos I always share this little idea with the ladies that love the flower button tool but don’t know if they’d use it as much since it’s a button not epoxy.It’s like getting 2 different ways to create your custom embellishments with 1 tool. Use as a button and thread string thru it or put some bling in the center and now its a cute little embellishment.

Here’s some more fun ideas for how you can use our Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Flower Tools…

bracelets…

headbands…

cupcake toppers and treat bags….yum!!

or dress up a chocolate treat for someone special
