Homemade Buttons - Tutorial
Hi Friends. I recieved quite a few requests for the buttons tutorial.
Here's how you can make these yummilicious buttons. All you need to do is punch out 4-5 pcs of any shape that u need the buttons to be on regular cardstock and 1pc. of the same shape on pattern paper that u would like yr button design. Glue them all together neatly one on top of the
other,keeping the pattern paper punch out on the top ofcourse.Make sure to line up the edges as close as possible. Smooth the edges using a nile file/sanding block if u have one. After the glueing is done I punched out holes for the buttons.(2 or 4 depending on the design) After that I applied some glue on the pp paper (top most surface) and treated it with UTEE (Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel & heated it with my Heat Gun. I repeated the same process twice to give it that thickness. U can even doodle around your buttons before the embossing to give it extra detailing, like I have done. And that completes your YUMMY Buttons!!!!!! U can have various designs, shapes & sizes... Hope this tutorial helps.
Hugs,
Riti
