I love this! I think I would leave them attached and just trim away the bulk on the sides and then the corners would be identical on front and back of the corner of the book

[@chasingpaper2022]

Thank you, Twylah! 🤗 You are absolutely right! 👍 I've been using this technique for making corner embellishments/tuck spots in my journals 😉 It works really well and looks nice 😊

[@lvtaylor8729]

💡 Great idea. Thanks for the tip.

[@GingerUrban-f3z]

WOW 😮, these are AMAZING and so much easier to attach than the metal ones. I just ordered some metallic paper from Amazon. 😅😂. TFS

I just experimented with 2 inch foil circles I had which were adhesive. I folded in half and half again like she did, the fit beautifully on rounded corners and also straight.

Good idea and very good instructions ! I am wanting to enhance a dry mount diamond art project and accent the corners . It would be material thicker than a book but I think this might be the best idea I have seen so far for ....

[@chasingpaper2022]

Thank you so much! 😊 I'm sure it will work great for your project! 👍

[@doublej4077]

@@chasingpaper2022 Where did you get the metalic paper from ? Also that embossing thing what is it , where do you find one ? We tried hobby lobby but were dissapointed ......

[@chasingpaper2022]

@@doublej4077 You can check Michael’s or Joann’s for metal finish paper in the paper crafts/scrapbooking isle. You may buy it in a pack or as a single sheet. The embossing was done with the Sizzix BigShot Embossing/Die Cutting machine and a Sizzix Embossing Folder

@@chasingpaper2022 loved it 😁 Any suggestions if u dont have any paper punches..the patterned ones are pretty expensive here in Australia unfortunately. I guess u can cut some design with small scissors.. Again thanku x

[@chasingpaper2022]

@@karenmusa3052 You can always leave a straight edge for a more simple and clean utilitarian look, which is reminiscent of antique ledgers. And, like you said, cutting out a design with small scissors will work too. If your paper is not too thick, I would try to work with 2 squares at a time by “sandwiching” them together before cutting, just to make sure that the design is identical on all corners, front and back. You can also trace your desired design on the top square of your “sandwich” before cutting. In that case, you need to to flip over your top square and trace on the back side, so that the lines are not visible on your corner after you are finished cutting. Hope this helps! 😊 Let me know how it works out! 🌺
