Hello! Today is "Show Me Your Technique" Tuesday with My Creative Time. Two other MCT Designers, Cassandra and Amy, are also participating today. You should have arrived here from Cassandra's Blog.
Today I will show you how to make some cute pencils using Emma's All Around and My Teacher Rocks Stamp Sets. The paper and choice of image can be altered to fit just about any occasion. Since my children start school again in September I decided to do a school theme.
Today I will show you how to make some cute pencils using Emma's All Around and My Teacher Rocks Stamp Sets. The paper and choice of image can be altered to fit just about any occasion. Since my children start school again in September I decided to do a school theme.
1. First you need 2 Scallop circle die cuts, 1 stitched oval die cut, 1 Stitched Circle die cut and of course, a pencil.
2. Put terrifically tacky tape or score tape on the back of your Stitched Oval die.
3. Place your pencil on the tape and close it over evenly.
4. Put more tacky tape on BOTH sides of the stitched oval die.
5. Pull the film off the tape on both sides of the oval die cut, attach a scallop to one side, add glue and then the other scallop.
6. Now you are ready to add the stitched circle with your stamped image and...
TaDa you are done with your pencil.
Here are the bunch of pencils I made for my kids teachers. I also decorated a pencil holder to hold them.

Very Cute!! I bet the kids & teacher both loved these!
I love these! I made several, (same concept, different design),last year for end-of-the-year teacher gifts. The were VERY well received!
So super cute! Thank you for showing another way to use MCT's dies! altered projects are my favorite to see as they are the most difficult for me to come up with! I'll definitely be something similar to these :)
Clever pencil toppers and I love the pencil holder. TFS --C
