How to Use the Best Glue Ever to Make a Quick and Simple Card


Today's project with ScraPerfect highlights the Best Glue Ever!


I started this project with a top folding A2 white card base and a piece of white cored light lime green cardstock cut to the size of the card front. I ran it through my embossing machine with the folder shown and then sanded the surface to highlight the design.


The Best Glue Ever along with the No Clog Writing Cap made gluing the layers of my card securely together a super simple job. Things with deep texture can be hard to use adhesives like a tape-runner on, but the BGE works fast and with only a tiny amount...so one bottle will last you a really long time!


I stamped the solid flower image in a deep turquoise blue color, cut a square around it and layered it on to matching cardstock. I then used foam tape to adhere it to the card front for added dimension.


The inside sentiment is a sweet one!


I stamped the "hi friend" sentiment right on to the card front with black ink -using the built in banner area the embossing folder provided as part of it's design.


And that's all there is to this quick and simple card! Until next time, happy crafting with ScraPerfect~

How to Take a Coffee Break Using the Best Glue Ever


Today's card for ScraPerfect highlights the Best Glue Ever. Since I also used this sketch in my inspiration, I will also be entering it @ The Paper Players.


In gathering my supplies, I used designer series paper from Stampin' Up, clear stamps from STAMPlorations and of course the Best Glue Ever from ScraPerfect along with the No Clog Writing Cap.


I used the BGE to adhere everything on my card except for the die cut oval on the card front, which I adhered with foam tape for added dimension.


Coloring was done with watercolor pencils and a blender pen,.


I used diecuts from Itsy Bitsy for the oval on the front and the circle inside. The two sentiments are both digital stamps from LaLaLand.


I did add a tiny bit of the purple water color pencil behind the sentiment to help it pop.


Pulling this card all together went pretty fast since I used coordinating  pattern papers.


That's it for me today...until next time~happy crafting with ScraPerfect!

How to Make a Foxy Planner for February


Today's project with ScraPerfect is my planner spread for next week.


I printed out digi stamps on sticker paper and used patterned paper that's been in my stash for many years.


Of course, the Best Glue Ever with the No Clog Writing Cap is perfect for any paper project and so I used it to glue down all the paper that I punched and diecut out.


I then colored all the images up with my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers, accented them with Wink of Stella clear shimmer pen, stamped daily "to-do"s and blended pink ink around the edges.


Turned out pretty cute, eh? Since February is the month to celebrate LOVE, I figured I could get by using that as my theme for another week in my planner!



That's it for me today ~happy crafting with ScraPerfect!

How To Make A Masculine Love Card Using the Best Glue Ever



Today's card is one of my favorite's to date! I made it for ScraPerfect and used the Card Map Challenge over @ Power Poppy to pick my sketch. I used to use Card Maps many years ago and had completely forgotten about them, so I was happy to see that they do indeed still exist! Because this digi stamp from Craftin' Desert Divas is coffee themed I can also enter my card over @ CAS-ual Fridays for "More Coffee Please".


I gathered lots of paper patterns for this card -many of which are from my decades old scrapbooking stash. I also used thin cut dies from Craftin' Desert Divas, Sweet Stamp Shop, Spellbinders and Itsy Bitsy. The sentiment stamps are from a set from CTMH and the Coffee Cactus digi was colored with Chameleon colored pencils.


Of course, the Best Glue Ever with the No Clog Writing Cap is just perfect to adhere everything together without any wrinkling!  For this particular piece, I dug out and used my old scallop edge decorative scissors.


Next, I used the Perfect Crafting Pouch on my speech bubble diecut to eliminate any static electricity before I stamped it with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I then brushed it clean using the Perfect Cleaning Cloth.


Inside stamping was done in black ink and I added a strip of left over pattern paper from Creative Memories.


Top left accent was a zigzag stitching stamp done up in white embossing to help it look like the banner flags were sewn on to the card front. Everything was glued down flat except for the speech bubble that was added with foam pop dots for dimension.


Well, that's it for me today. Until next time, happy crafting with ScraPerfect~

How To Make A Cute Dragon Card With The Best Glue Ever


Today's design team post with ScraPerfect uses the Best Glue Ever to adhere together the components for this super cute card that was inspired by the sketch over @ My Favorite Things.


I started by using the small Net stencil from Itsy Bitsy with 2 shades of green Distress ink to mimic pattern paper on the left side of the card.


I stamped the dragon and star stamps from Itsy Bitsy in Archival black ink so that I could color him up with my watercolor pencils and a blender pen, then masked him off and stenciled some clouds around him using blue Distress ink.


The Best Glue Ever with the No Clog Writing Cap on top made an easy job of adding just the right amount of adhesive to my layers of card stock for quick assembly of the card.


I used gold Wink of Stella to color the stars and added some glitter to his wings using a Stardust gel pen. 


Inside I stamped the love sentiments from CAS-ual Fridays in black ink.


The front sentiment was popped up with mini foam dots for added dimension.


That's it for me today! Until next time, happy crafting with ScraPerfect~

How To Make a Winter Wonderland Card Using the Best Glue Ever


Today, this card I made for the ScraPerfect design team is super simple but -WOW - what an impact that foil makes!!! I'm in love with working with Transfer Foil and the Best Glue Ever...you've gotta try it. I promise that you won't be disappointed!

I'll be entering it @ Cards in Envy for "Winter Chills" and @ Always Fun Challenges for "One Layer".


This HOTP/TCW stencil also had Santa with his sleigh on it, but I only wanted to use the snowy swirly part, so I taped off the sections I didn't want to use with some washi tape before laying it over top of my A2 sized white card front. I then lightly sponged on the Best Glue Ever, making sure not to move the stencil.


After carefully lifting the stencil and setting the card aside to dry, I immediately covered the gluey stencil with the Best Cleaner Ever, let it sit for awhile and then scrubbed it gently with a baby wipe and a paper towel.


After the glue turned from white to clear, I knew it was ready to apply the foil. I made sure to thoroughly rub over the entire design firmly with my fingers so that the glue was covered completely with the foil. Removing the foil is the best part -it's like a magic trick, lol.


I used the Chilly Time digital stamp set from Craftin' Desert Divas again to print out the skating penguins and colored them with pencils before fussy cutting them out and popping them up in the bottom left corner of my card using mini foam dots.


I then added the finishing touch of several sequins to my card using the Best Glue Ever with the No Clog Writing Cap and the Embellie Gellie tool...they make the perfect combo for handling and applying the smallest of lovelies!


On the inside, I added a digi sentiment that I die cut using 2 circle layering die sets from Itsy Bitsy.


I just love the shimmery blues and greens in this foil -makes for a very stunning CAS card!


That's it for me today -until next time, happy crafting with ScraPerfect!
