Scratchy Cards

Using Household objects,there isn't even a cent needed to spend with this fun craft!!:)

What You Need

-Dish washing Liquid
-paint
-Card/Paper
-Paint Brush
-Tape(transparent)
-pen or felt tip pen(i know in the pic below you can see a pen but I did use a felt tip pen)

1)Draw Your design on your card with a pencil,once you are happy with it,trace it with the pen.Tip:You can print your design out on a computer,it won't make any difference.
2)Put the desired amount of paint and dish washing liquid  on your mixing palate.(mine was just a bit of paper)Make sure you have less dish washing liquid on your palate than the paint as well.
mix the two ingredients together  


3)Put tape over the areas you want to be scratched,make sure not to overlap the tape one the card,otherwise when someone goes to scratch the paint,they'll peel of the overlapping tap and the paint will come of without having to be scratched                                                                      



4) Paint the dish washing liquid and paint mixture onto the taped areas.its ok if some paint goes of the sides of the tape.just make sure you cover all of the tape.let the paint dry.

5)Once the paint has dried,scratch it off youeself ot give it to someone!These scratch of cards are great for birthday or christmas tags as well!


See U Next Time!

White Box

Okay so I was helping Cleaning up my big sis's room and she found an old jewelry box(very girly might i add as well)and she asked me if we had any spray paint.We did,but the only colour I could remember having was black.So she went downstairs(me following)and asked me to get a scarf and find the pray paint.so after a looking everywhere for spray paint,i finally found some white spray paint,I didn't even know we had any!:/ 

so with a cloth around my mouth and nose and scarf around sissy,she started to spray the paint onto the jewelry box,she covered the lock ,hinges and top of the jewelry box as well with duct tape



Unfortunately we ran out of white paint before we could finish the insides of it,I'm not quit sure what we are going to do about it."_"We managed to cover the outside of it,missing bits around the hinges and lock because of the tape.

Later!

Toilet Roll Lolly Holders

 Righty o!this post is how to make lolly roll lolly holders,super cheap,super easy and takes hardly any time!Kid Friendly too!

1)What You Need

-toilet rolls(your chosen amount)
-paints(once again your choice of colour)
-paint brush
2) ^^^

2)


as seen in the picture above, fold the top of the toilet roll inwards on both sides,repeat at the other end, then  unfold the flaps.this makes a crease and is most helpful when refolding the flaps in step 4)


3)

once the toilet roll ends have been unfolded,paint them in any  colours of your choice.and let them dry.








4)refold those flaps you folded in step 2 andadd some finishing touches and decorations!I used Acrylic gemstones,Sparkles and some red and green ribbon.

not the best I know,but I did Rush it a little

note:You could also use these for Halloween or Easter to keep the chocolates or lollies in!!:)
