In case you thought I preferred photograph tasks earlier than I had a child, effectively, imagine it or not … I’m EVEN MORE INTO IT NOW. Lol.
I’m working with Canon USA to share this DIY photograph glitter globe challenge. I used the Canon IVY mini printer, which is a small transportable printer you need to use to print photographs out of your telephone (utilizing the Canon mini print app).
I like this little printer. It’s tremendous straightforward to make use of and the prints are stickers! You too can use the app so as to add design components like frames or stickers.
What are glitter globes? Principally, these are mini snow globes however the glitter and colours I select don’t really feel “wintery,” so I felt they deserved one other identify. You may add any photographs to those—I selected black and white photographs of my son.
And these photograph glitter globes are enjoyable to make for your self or as a present for Mom’s Day or Father’s Day (or a vacation).
I’ll share step-by-step photographs of how I made these, however I created this video tutorial too:
You may customise these a number of alternative ways! I made mine colourful by including a drop or two of meals coloring, however you might additionally select to depart the water plain and use completely different coloured glitter for a special look.
Provides:
Step One: Print your photographs. Every photograph globe had a back and front, so it may have two photographs in every (or two of the identical photograph, when you wished).
I used the black and white filter within the Canon mini print app to edit among the photographs I had on my telephone and printed them out on the ZINK paper.
Step Two: Peel and stick the photographs to the internal cardboard (that got here with the globes). Then, use scissors to trim them to suit into the globes.
Step Three: Fill the globes. First, I added the glitter. Then I blended 1/2 to three/4 cup water with one drop of meals coloring and a cap full (in all probability about 1 teaspoon) of glycerin.
The glycerin helps to maintain the glitter from clumping collectively.
These turned out actually cute, IMO. I presently have one sitting on my workplace desk proper by my pc as I sort this. The opposite two are supposed to be presents for my mom and mother-in-law. Thanks for letting me share! xo. Emma
