[@lburdettro]

Great video...Did you fuse through the laminating paper and the candy bags. and they stuck?? Please confirm.

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

Yes, I did go through all of those layers. It took time and patience. :) I did have one of mine pop open eventually, but others stayed just fine. Thanks for watching.

[@sphinxette0473]

Cute project ty for sharing 😊👍

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

Thanks for watching!

[@mishelly]

so cute!!! did you use a wood burning tool to seal the plastic?

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

It is a special tool called a fuse tool for sealing things like page protectors. You can get them branded by We R Memory Keepers and Becky Higgins. If you like in the U.S. you can find them at most "big box" craft stores and should be able to use a computer to save some $. :) Thanks for watching!

[@littlefrills831]

you're welcome, quick question, what die is the hearts one?

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

The hearts are from a Spellbinders nesting hearts die set.

[@sonalihm4344]

Wow so fantastic

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

Thank you :)

[@KrisBitches]

Thanks for sharing! Great video! Quick question, do you laminate on the 3m or 5m setting on the laminator? Thanks!

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

+Kristen Swiderski so glad you enjoyed my video. I am pretty sure I used the 3 mil setting. :)

[@KrisBitches]

[@mahoganystamper]

I love this idea What are the Alphabet Dies you used.

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

I used an old Quickutz alphabet set I have. I believe it is called Maryjane. Here is a link to a set being sold on eBay (no relation to seller or experience with them - just wanted you to see the set): goo.gl/VkCQ8a Thanks for watching!

[@mahoganystamper]

Where do you get the mulit containers of sequins. Can you measure the Letter B for me the alaphabets I brought from Ebay are so big they just fit in the book mark they are so Big. Lol

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

Next time I am in my craft room (hopefully this weekend) I will measure that B. As for the sequins, here is a video where I share my sequin storage solution: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZK4Zaesach7Z7M

[@ravenstarh6483]

I cannot seem to get my fuse tool to fuse through the bag and laminating sheet. Any tips?

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

Raven Starh let the fuse tool heat up well (20-30 mins), go slowly across the end and repeat lots of times. It takes some time.

[@sunshinegirl0778]

Beautiful

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

Thanks so much!! I have a giveaway going on, I hope you will check it out.

[@gailgaardner5151]

Could you recommend a die machine. I want to get one but I’m new to crafting.

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

gail gaardner if you are looking for a manual die cutter, I would probably go with the Big Shot. I currently have a Cuttlebug that is almost 12 years old and I LOVE it, but I do think the newer versions don’t work as well. My sister has a newer Cuttlebug and a Big Shot and I like her Big Shot better.

[@gailgaardner5151]

Call Me {Crafty}thank you so much! Have a bless day.

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

You are welcome, hope it helped.

[@OfeliasCreativeHeart]

Hi Alicia:) Another great tutorial to add to my "to do" craft list! Can u tell me what letter dies u used? Thank you for the inspiration!! ~Ofelia

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

I believe it is Memory Box "Classic Alpha Upper". that is one of my favorites - I use it all the time. definitely worth the investment. www.memoryboxco.com/98361-Classic-Upper-Alphabet-craft-dies_p_130.html

[@OfeliasCreativeHeart]

+Call Me Crafty Al Thank you Alicia:) I appreciate you always answering my questions!! I always have so many, lol!! ~Ofelia

[@rozyroan385]

How do you use the treat bags

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

I have some more instructions on this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWmzin6Ke8qKg6M

[@an33y]

I laminated mine and now the bag won't open 😢 I'm so confused

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

I had some do that as well. I started adding a piece of lightweight cardstock to the inside. The bag won't seal shut and you can pull out the cardstock when you cut the bag open. Hope that helps.

[@dreammom3]

Where do you buy your sequins?

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

Karen, Most of my sequins are from major craft stores or the $ Tree. :) I did buy a "lot" of small ones on Amazon. I think I got like 16 baggies of different colors.

[@lbchristensen8732]

where did you get the tiny sequins

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

Here is the lot I bought from Amazon: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00T5V3RUU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[@jennyjenjen82]

What is the cutting tool you are using called

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

jennifer h are you referring to the die cutter that I cut my letters out with? If so, that is a 'vintage' Cuttlebug. :)

[@jennyjenjen82]

Ok thanks I need to get one .. can you use any die cutting with it

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

Jennifer, I can use dies from a wide variety of manufacturers. It comes with plates to accommodate different thicknesses of dies. It wouldn't do the commercial Accucut dies, but can do Sizzix bigz. I did discover it isn't wide enough to do some of the embossing folders from stampin' up - those are 6" wide, which I guess does fit on the Big Shot die cutter.
