Adding Sparkle to Your Stickers

Supplies Needed:
- Stickers
- Adhesive Machine
- Micro Beads
- Container of some sort for the beads
- Scissors

Begin by cutting out the sticker. I found that medium to bigger shapes work better. The smaller shapes won’t have a clean edge because there isn’t enough surface area for the beads to cling to.

Place your sticker in the adhesive machine face down (otherwise, you’ll have a double-sticky sticker).

Remove the "double-sided" sticker and place it face down in the micro beads. Be sure to press hard and continue to "press and check" until the entire surface is covered. Sometimes you may need to play with it a bit to get the edges clean.


Now just peel off the original backing and use the sticker as you normally would.
** One note of caution: while the beads will be secure enough for use inside a scrapbook, they aren’t permanent. Please don’t let your kids play with the beaded stickers. **
In the following layout, I used this technique on the stars.
