TIP FOR THE WEEK! MAKE YOUR OWN DIMENSIONALS AND POP DOTS!!!



DIY-  DO IT YOURSELF!  FOR LESS!  YAY! 

Everyone that paper crafts knows that pop dots  or foam tape in the store is spendy!
Seriously?  You want $6.99 for this?  You could buy it at the dollar store for a buck!  BUT it ONLY COMES IN WHITE!   

If you are popping up colored paper especially black paper items- you do not want a white pop dot- YOU WILL see it!  I make my own foam tape in any color with just a few items you probably already have!



If you have colored foam sheets- You know that fun foam that is used for kids crafts and is super inexpensive in the craft stores?  It comes in individual sheets - packaged in an array of sizes and colors, and sometimes comes with adhesive already on it.  I personally do not care for the tacky-ness of the adhesive backed foam ( it isn't as sticky as I would like).  


Strong tape adhesive such as scor-tape.  (Anyone that knows me and has taken any of my classes on albums and books knows how much i luv this product!  It's an amazing tool! )

With these 2 items  you can make any thickness- any size and any color pop dot- or dimensional  you would like for your card making or scrap-book pages!

See for yourself!  And  let me know what you think!!
