GOT STICKERS? Turn Them Into Embellishments with my EASY TIPS!!!

[@leisacarnahan7647]

Thank you for showing the scan and cut. I have heard of it but have never seen it. I love it! I have a hard time fussy cutting with my arthritis and that scan and cut would help me a lot. Thanks for sharing.

[@LynBell]

I had looked at this before and thought I'd refresh myself. Thanks. A couple of years ago I was given a sticker book with all sorts of things I would never use. After watching your video I decided to stick a collection of very small things on a white card stock. Rather than cutting the little pieces which I never thought I would use I embossed the whole piece and I was thrilled with the effect as a background!

[@cindywall3119]

Great idea!

[@xxkarliepearlxx5761]

What a wonderful idea for using up stickers.

[@judylingard9867]

What a great idea!! I need to go through mine and use them. Thanks again Sam

[@gwhit8808]

This is genius. I just spent 2 hours going thru all of the planner stickers that I have never used and making card embellishments from them. Not only did I salvage the stickers but I used all scrap pieces of white card stock to adhere them to. Win-win. No waste. Thank you!!

[@suze6999]

I've just done the same. I have so much white cardstock offcuts that are perfect for this.

[@Babs-Veterans-are-Family]

You solved one problem but created another. Now you have more little loose bits all over the craft room. Storing little things like that is a pain. If I can't see it I forget I have it. I have a ton of Christmas stickers some are clear with a sentiment I plan just to stick it to the inside of my card. I have jewel ones plan to make a background stick the Merry Christmas jewels right over top.

[@RoxanneR8375]

I thought about this too, Babs. I think I will stick mine on 4 x 6 cards (or another consistent size), with similar stickers on each card. All pastel flowers, sentiments, butterflies, vintage images, etc., for example. It would be much easier to shuffle through a stack of cards than 1000 little ephemera. 😊

[@silverhoney6969]

I love this idea! I’ve been doing this for a while, I like to use the metallic, foil or glitter cardstocks to do with this to add a bit of shine to the stickers

[@ritamccarvil1539]

Thank you for this video, I have heaps of stickers that I have bought over many years and I have not used them because they made my cards look cheap. So I will be doing this in the future. Thanks again. Regards Rita.

[@queenpangaea3325]

I'm glad you said that. I thought I was the only one that didn't like how most stickers look on my cards. I like this idea, they look much better.

[@gayle1055]

What a fantastic idea Sam. I’m not awfully fond of stickers so this is great for me.

[@mattitaylor4569]

This is one of those "Why didn't I think of that" ideas...thanks!

[@eileenbergeron7953]

I realize this was years ago… but what a great idea! Thank you for this!!

[@sojbnz3111]

brillant!!! thank you so much for all the tips & ideas!!

[@MissyElephant]

Great idea why had I never thought of this before...... 🙄 Thanks for sharing Sam x

[@brizy1215]

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this tip. This is going to help me do the same thing with all my stickers that I bought just because they were cute and all of my scraps. Thank you so much. Happy Crafting from Phoenix, Arizona. ❤️🤗

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you You are so welcome 😀

[@roxanneklinger3828]

Ink stained fingertips are the sign of a great crafter. So never worry about that. Thank you so much for the ideas about stickers made into ephemera . I would always shy away from stickers in the past, maybe not so much now. Love this tutorial. Great ideas.

[@mummabearmarie1109]

Thanxxx Sam, I avoid stickers on cards because they are so flimsy and look cheap, but this is great, may have to get my 1000's of stickers out now and give this a go.....

[@RuthieAubs]

Such a great idea!! My next question is how do you store them now??? TFS!

[@maryroe1125]

The smallest thing can make the greatest impact. You’ve done it with this one. Thanks Sam. Blessings ❤️xx

[@kazlee0608]

Hello Sam I've just started card crafting and I would like to thank you for posting easy to follow step by step instructions x

[@kazlee0608]

Can't wait to try the scraps ideas x

[@connectionoflivesandinterests]

*Awesome share!!! 😍😍😍* Sharon in SC

[@sianevans4827]

Thanks Sam - you’ve just demo’d one of the reasons why I bought a scan n cut - wouldn’t be without it now!

[@shaunamaxwell5932]

Never seen the Brother cutting machine. Recently ruptured tendons and nerve damage has hindered my abilities to make cards severely. That was fast. It took me 24 totaled time just to make 3 cards. That machine is awesome.

[@solovjud]

Thank you, thank you, thanks you! Brilliant idea 🌷

[@lynnemorton6055]

Hi Sam, Great advice. Would never think of doing this. Thank you as always

[@noreenmulder5255]

Thanks Sam. Excellent idea! 🤗💡👌

[@patriciatatlock5716]

Oh my ! I'm about to go and sort, mount, and file by theme for future embellishment and USE !

[@sarao982]

Great tips Sam. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. Impressed how quick the Scan n Cut cut them all out ! That’s next on my shopping list. Maybe one day you could do a tutorial for the Scan n Cut as you explain things so easily 💕

[@sarahanderson4402]

I love fussy cutting stickers and embellishments. Great ideas.

[@laurag5168]

Excellent way to use up your scraps as well :)

[@karenchester3978]

What an awesome idea. Thank you Sam.

[@sueNewton]

Thanks for that great tip Sam great idea.

[@Karen-ch1dy]

This is a great idea! Ephemera is so much easier to store too. This will all fit in a small container for my scrap room. These small bits are easier to take to a crop too. Thank you!

[@seekingmycraftytribe]

Great idea! I have plenty of planner stickers I haven't used.

[@selenemason9383]

What a brilliant idea, I think I can count on one hand how many times I have used my scan and cut. Feel a stamping session going on and maybe even getting some printable stickers and use cricut to cut and then make then into embellishments

[@scrappinorchid5498]

I just unpacked my scan n cut after moving about a year ago. Thanks for sharing this.

[@janasher4940]

Thanks for this idea. Putting stickers on card stock makes them stand out more and they look so much better than just plopping them down on a card front. I never thought about running it through the ScanNCut.

[@louiseporter8148]

I spend time in the evening putting stickers on cardstock and then store them in a folder.Then I can flip through to find what I want to use at the time.Thanks for the idea on putting them onto coloured card.Such a simple idea and one I had never thought of.I have just subsribed.

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you Louise and welcome 😁

[@rebeccapatterson649]

Oh, maybe I need one of those!

[@MsSnailspace]

wow!! I never thought of this...thank you Sam xo

[@glynnisdavies7624]

Thank you for the idea Sam. xx

[@scrappingwithShannon]

What a creative idea! I feel very inspired from your video!

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you! 😊

[@AlysonGold]

Such a great idea! I never knew what to do with stickers, so thank you! I don't know how you come up with so many great ideas. Tyfs

[@leannemitchem8865]

Great idea Sam! Thank you for sharing

[@teenyarosenbaum3287]

Thank you so much for this video. Just the guidance needed 😉

[@irenebaxendale8367]

Brilliant idea, have so much scrap and stickers just waiting for this kind of inspiration, thank you ❤

[@reneebanbury7066]

This is a great idea! I find when you using my Cricut & cutting intricate snowflakes - I use a brand new green mat & make sure my blade is new or at least clean it with a ball of tin foil first. I get a perfect image every time & I save that mat for intricate designs only! Love your videos - you are genius!

[@lindabradford9591]

I do the same with my cricut, cutting shapes after measuring the sticker. I found after having a cricut, I've become lazy and hate using scissors lol.

[@cynthiatuczynski9491]

Good ideas. Thank you for sharing 😊🤗

[@janettemorrison812]

Charity shops good for stickers too. Thanks for the tips x

[@annemariesim]

Fantastic idea as always as I have loads of stickers and didn’t think to make them into embellishments. Thank you 😊

[@anntucker2922]

This video is inspirational as always, Sam. Thank you. Please can I request that you show what can be done with a large stock of peel off stickers, particularly the picture ones. I have a huge folder full of part used sticker sheets and it would be good to find new ways to use them up.

[@gertrudechouinard4053]

Great idea! I’ll check out my boxes of stickers .

[@ThorneyRose]

I love fussy cutting but I don’t always have the time to do it. I have a scan n cut and I will be using it for this.

[@loriallman6443]

Genius idea!

[@suecartwright6794]

Would never have thought to do that.

[@ljbj4]

simple yet clever! tfs!

[@patriciahayes1237]

I always seem to put all my stickers to white card never colour I don’t know why . but it’s something I will now look into . How can I use these in card making, thanks another great tutorial xx

[@lesliezimmermann8261]

What a really cool machine!! I’ve never seen that before!!

[@2848Adriana]

Hi Sam. Love this idea, why didn't I think of this!!!!, we are lucky to have you show us, TFS, Cheers Anna.

[@michellepetosa7062]

Love this Video - great idea!! I'm going to adapt this new trick.....thanks so much!

[@suearcher8708]

That is a great idea, thanks Sam! And, just to go on record I am terrified of my San & Cut!

[@ldkr8254]

Thank you for these ideas! I don’t use my scan n cut to its potential, so this will also help me get rid of some of my hoarded stickers 😂.

[@SusiesCrafTeaCorner]

I've been doing this for a few years now but it does take a while to fussy cut them out, now I just need to get a scan n cut and let it cut them out for me lol TFS🌹

[@angelakenny6500]

Good idea once again .thanks Sam

[@heathertoms4188]

Fussy cutting is my favourite thing to do so I will enjoy doing this thank you Sam x

[@dianedas6368]

Love this idea. thank you

[@gailmactavish3065]

HI Sam.these are great ideas I do this all the time. I sit and attach heaps of stickers to card as you have done and then I place them in a travel folder I have . So if I am travelling anywhere with my husband, he drives ( good man) and I fussy cut....makes a boring journey quite exciting. I find fussy cutting quite relaxing.

[@AndreatheCumbrianCrafter]

Brilliant idea! Loved seeing your scan and cut, I haven’t seen one in action before! Thank you for sharing 🥰💗xx

[@Bramblesmom1]

I've been putting mine in the bin, not now x TFS Sam x

[@leannehenderson8373]

Really great ideas. Thanks for sharing

[@helen1125]

Excellent idea Sam thanks for this tutorial I will try this with all my gazillion stickers that just sit in a pile.

[@thedailysarah]

This is such a great idea. I have a fair few packs of stickers that I thought I would never use. Brilliant!

[@Deborahsantalucia]

What a awesome idea Sam thank you for sharing on how to use your stickers in a different way ❤️🥰 x you will get much more use out of them

[@sylviamontalvo6511]

Thank You for sharing, I will try this idea for my stickers.

[@lvan4407]

Nice to be so crafty and to use up some stickers just wondering if you have done anything with jigsaw puzzle pieces I think willing to or three together would make a great embellishment

[@ann-mariecox6512]

Great idea Sam Thanks xx

[@1948Harper]

I love this idea. Thanks so much x

[@beckyhuddleston5416]

Oh boy! A whole new world! Thank you Sam! Scan and cut on my wish list now!

[@angiejones8733]

Great video. And I have a tonne of stickers

[@carolekinsey7835]

I've used this technique for years now Sam. Not using stickers, but pictures from magazines and such. Little quirky pictures, cartoons, or flowers, pictures of parcels or cute animals, fancy cups, teapots....you name it I've cut them out and used as embelushments. I'm a bit addicted to fussy cutting 🤣 I find it very relaxing. I know its not everyones 'cup of tea'. Thats where a device like the Scan and Cut, comes into its own. I must admit, the scan and cut devices out there now, are amazing. I'm sure this will be a very handy tip for lots of new crafters watching. Its a great way of using up all those stickers some crafters collect. I don't have any myself, but now wishing i did. 🤔 😆 A lovely and very handy little tutorial. Thanks Sam. Xxx

[@deed3044]

This is a brilliant way of using the stickers as where I live the nearest craft store/shop is an hour away but have a local shop that sells the sticker's. Thank's for sharing this with us Sam x

[@lynnbartlett4185]

Great Idea. I never think to use stickers. Loved seeing your scan and cut in action. Didn’t realise it could do that.

[@LaynieFingers]

I did this last week... I was looking at stickers I'd had for ages and had the flash of inspiration that I could turn them into something I would use!

[@chrisfields1723]

Brilliant ideas! Thanks

[@anastasiapaggett3848]

Thank you Sam really good idea

[@roosje7300]

I have a cricut and nog been using it yet.... This is a brilliant idea!

[@lynnfelthauser7181]

Brilliant, why have I never thought of this?! I have soooooo many stickers and I’m constantly using my anti-static pouch to remove the sticky and it’s a mess.

[@jeanwinkler7885]

Love this idea.

[@suevincett446]

Thanks for this Sam, h ave a box full of stickers, doing nothing, but I will be making embellishments with them now x

[@surgicaltechcrafter2169]

Brilliant! I have an entire drawer full just sitting, so here's my next project. Thank you! I love my cricut. My cameo 4 is registered and out of the box but I just can't seem to get myself motivated to learn to use it with my business edition. Lol. I have been resticking my mats for years I follow Kelly Barlow creations tutorial.

[@laurelgausden3455]

New lease of life for stickers! Fantastic idea! Thank you. X

[@kimdixon3773]

Thanks for the great ideas!

[@cpr6760]

Thank you so, so, so much!!! I've had my Scan 'N Cut still in the box as I have totally overwhelmed to even try to use it. Now I see its not as much work as I thought. Thank you!!!

[@MixedUpCraft]

I promise it's very easy, et it out of the box! 😁

[@Miastrong930]

Brilliant idea! Many Thanks.

[@StellasScrappyCrafts]

These look great. What a difference.

[@allisonsnell9352]

I do love stickers!! Takes me back to my childhood. Never thought to do this. Thank you so much for this fab idea xx

[@joannwilliamson8981]

Excellent idea ! thanks

[@pineapplepapercrafts]

I love doing this with flimsy stickers. And it let's you layer some you never would've before. Also using stickers like this on box cards are great. And they hold up since they have extra paper behind them. 😊

[@craftaddictRoxanne]

Great idea. Tfs hugs

[@carmenvogels-aagaard5559]

Brilliant idea.

[@aliceratcliffe739]

Thank you for sharing. You’ve given me a few great tips!!
