Clear Tags with Faux Water Drops.


I got the idea from Francesca at Junk Journal Joy. She made hers with melted wax. This one I made with just some glue and a few drops of water. I started out with a piece of white tissue paper. I add a piece of cardstock behind it, so I can use my typewriter and write a quote on it. It worked quite well.
Then I just stamped on it. Then I take some freezer paper and put down a layer of glue. I put my tissue paper right side down on it and add a layer of glue on top. Then let it dry. When it's dry, you can easily peel the tissue paper off.


You add acetate to the front and back. I also sewed around all my tags.


For the water drops I punched out some acetate circles and added a drop of Glossy accents. When they are dry, they will be clear with a flat bottom and a small dome shape on top. I also tried it with just putting drops on some parchment paper. They will not stick to the paper, but they will be cloudy looking.



This is the one, I used the melted wax technique. It worked great, too





For this one I used my glue method.





These are a great addition to any journal. Thank you Francesca for the inspiration.
