12X12 CARDSTOCK SHOP How to Make a Shaker Card Using Grafix Shrink Plastic
Are you ready to create some fun Shaker Card? Yes? Then this fun and artistic tutorial from the 12x12 cardstock shop is what you need. Create a magical shaker card using Grafix Shrink Plastic. Go through this information that we have shared with you. In the end, you will be able to create yourself a fabulous shaker card using Grafix Shrink Plastic.
But first, here's a tip I learned years ago to help with the shrinkage. Take a one inch strip of your shrink plastic and use an alcohol marker (or Sharpie) and make your own ruler. Then SHRINK that ruler. Now you will know exactly the size of your shrunken image.
Looking at the teapot stamp, it is 1 1/2 inches in real life, but will be less than 3/4 inches when shrunken. Just store your shrink plastic ruler with your sheets of shrink plastic for future use.
Now, onto the card. I used Stazon ink to stamp my teapot image onto the white Shrink Plastic. VERY CAREFULLY use alcohol markers to color the teapot.
Now, cut and shrink your teapots using a heat gun (the same kind you may use for embossing powder). Heat until flat and fully shrunken. The shrink plastic shrivels as it shrinks, but don't worry. As it reaches the final stages of shrinking, it flattens back out. If there are slight curls, you can press down on it with a heavy object for a few seconds while it is still warm
