Hi Everyone! Today I have a very quick idea on how to take Yupo paper cutouts, and make them look metallic. I’ve done lots of videos on what I do with these Yupo paper die cuts, and again, the reason I use Yupo paper is because it cuts my intricate and small designs much better…
Hi everyone! Today is just a quick update to show you something I’ve mentioned in other leather embossing videos when using paper die cuts and stencils. Initially I didn’t cut the paper to match the leather size so that it was a little bit harder to line up. If I didn’t get it right, then…
Hi everyone! In this new experiment with leather, I thought I had this great idea for a stencil design. It was supposed to be flowers with circles in the centers. But I always forget this when I’m doing stencils- images that are in the middle of another design need to be attached to the outside…
Hi everyone! I am back with a different ideas of trying to impress designs into leather using my Sizzix Big Shot. In this episode I’m going to be playing around with cardstock. For this experiment you will need a piece of leather, your Big Shot and some paper (cardstock in this case because it’s a…
Here’s a quick video on how I glue down itty bitty pieces from the leftovers from cutting out a stencil on my Silhouette Curio. This works bets when the cutting mat is still sticky and holds onto the cutout pieces when you lift off the stencil. Then you can use transfer tape to pick up…

I have other posts on using paper cutouts using the accucut machine, but this time I wanted to emboss using the Sizzix Big Shot. And I wanted…
Hi everyone! Today is a follow up in a series where I am experimenting with Ice Resin and Yupo paper cutouts. I am using Ice Resin to give a domed effect to my Silhouette Curio Yupo paper cutouts. My plan is to use these for imprinting them in clay or silicone molding putty, etc., and…
