 Hello everybody, welcome to my channel. It's Iwa from Bohemian Crafting and I'm coming to share with you some small recycling or cycling. I had large paper paper shopping bags from Amazon and I decided to scrap them. So what I did, I opened that bag and I glued on that where is the Amazon writing and all kind of those barcodes. I glued book pages, then I cut that back on those pieces and I do have here nice large tacks 9 by 4.5 inch and I decided that I'm gonna somehow decorate them and I will try to use all kind of recycling material but not just that, I'm gonna use also decorative papers and some decorative pictures of course. So before I will do anything else I'm gonna choose some paper I'm gonna use to make it a little bit stronger. So which one? These are papers from heartfelt, heartfelt creations, timeless amour and I think these are so beautiful. Yep, big one. This is red and this is kind of brown so I guess this because I may use it with double-sided look at that print. It's so gorgeous. So because my tack is 4.5 inches I'm gonna cut strip 4.25 and I think I'm gonna cut this side. I'm gonna keep this one for now. So I do have strip 4.25, 12 inches and because it's too long I'm gonna just place it here. The other way, because here I can't see the end, the other way I'm gonna keep space here, here I can see the end and I'm gonna just rip it with small gap, like this. And those other edges, first I'm gonna cut the corners kind of follow the large tack. And I'm gonna distress the edges using my scissors, just gonna slide it and a little bit rip it off. So I distressed those edges and I decided I'm gonna use this a little bit different way than I thought before. So I'm gonna cut this ripped edge straight and I will have piece 3 inches, 3.18. 3.18 by 4.5 exactly, 4.25 exactly same like is this one. I'm gonna take this plastic bag, open it and cut the strip, a little bit smaller, cut the strip, I think that white somewhere here. I'm gonna put double-sided tape on one end of this plastic bag, width to the end, like this. Take the backing off, carefully do not break the plastic bag and I'm gonna fold this over, hopefully it's not too tight. Looks good. So I do have my plastic bag on that paper, I'm gonna take my tack ruler and from the bottom of that tack, I'm gonna cut the line, I think 2 inches from the bottom, 2 inches here, 2 inches here. And I'm gonna use 2 tacks this, they are quite nice size. So those 2 tacks and they are 2.15, 2.15 inches wide. So I'm gonna make the cut 2.5, which means I'm gonna start on 3.15 of inch here. And I'm gonna finish on 3.15, somewhere here. So here will be first, cut that line from the bottom, I think 2 inches. I think somewhere on 6 inches, 6 inches here, 6 inches here and 2.5. And here I'm gonna make it a little bit on this side, so I'm gonna start on half. And I'm gonna finish on 3, here till here. I'm gonna take my knife and cut those lines. So I do have those cuts and I'm going also to cut the line on the side. Gonna make small marks here and here, if I did, oh yeah I did. And I'm gonna cut the small strip I think 3.25 of inch from the edge between those 2 marks I just made, just small space right here. So I do have my 2 tacks, I do have my strip with that plastic back. I do have here piece of acetate, I can tell you measurement, but I think it's not. We didn't even measure it, I just took what I've got here. It's 7 cm long and 2 cm wide. And I just folded I think 1 inch, yeah 1 inch. I made fold, I'm gonna put on this 1 inch, I'm gonna place a double sided tape, but from inside, like from here. This is the fold, so here I'm gonna put double sided tape. And I'm gonna slide this strip here, where is that fold, gonna flip it over and I'm gonna measure how far this is that strip, here is 1 entry, here is another entry. I think I'm gonna slide my tacks to make sure I see. So here we have 1 entry, here is another entry. So somewhere between I will place my paper. And it will be just between, ok with that mean, so I can slide this one right on the end and glue that acetate piece to my back, maybe I will have to fold it again. So now I'm going to put double sided tape on the end of my tacks, like this. And one tuck I can glue straight away. So I'm gonna glue it, I can glue it here on the end. I'm gonna put double sided tape here on this edge of my paper and hopefully I can fit here as well. And here on this edge of my paper. So I'm gonna slide first that acetate piece, then the tuck to the right position. I'm gonna take off the backing and place my paper to match the edge here. It should work. I will have to fold this one probably one more time. And I'm gonna take that backing from this side, glue it to the paper in there. Anything that's peeking out I'm gonna cut with my scissors. Like this. I need to do something with that acetate piece. It doesn't work the way I want. I'm gonna make that room. Alright, that's not too bad. So I'm gonna move it back to the end. I'm gonna flip it over, take the other tuck, take off that backing. I'm gonna slide the tuck to that spot to make sure it's straight. And here I'm gonna match it with the end here, to make it straight on this side. Okay, so I do have base. Before I will try to do some decoration on that tuck, I'm gonna put glue here, a little bit on that side, a little bit here. I just need to be careful. And here on the bottom. And I'm gonna make nice position on this large tuck. And I'm gonna also sew it all around. But I will sew really just the edge to make sure I'm not gonna sew any from that moving part. So just on the edge. Some easy sewing. And now I'm going to make some stenciling. Maybe stamping. Just something not too complicated. I think I'm gonna use just black ink for that. I like those numbers. So I'm gonna use those numbers. This is an undiskinned stencil. I just cut it on pieces because for me, it's much more easy to use it that way. And maybe here. So I do have that base. I just had to put there some die cuts and stuff I found in my drawer. I've got here butterfly and some circle because I made those circle videos. Maybe I can use that somehow. Okay, that will be first what I'm gonna glue down. Maybe some stencil or stencil. Some washi tape. I have to be careful to not glue it over that entry. Let me use this. I fell. I've got it here. I've got another one. Okay, gonna match it together. I have distressed dot piece. I'm gonna make there some easy stamping. Yeah, this one. And I'm gonna glue it here on the top over the edge. And let it dry. And I continue what? What with this? Probably I will don't use it because it's too long. I cut here this. So maybe I can use this flower. But it's kind of too shiny. So I'm gonna use my sanding nail and I'm gonna try very carefully to not destroy the die or die cap. I sand this cardstock a little bit and then distress it. Maybe I will do some stamping on it as well. And I'm gonna use those soft stamps. Put some stamping here and there. Just very softly. That's enough. And distress all that plant or flower with ground espresso. My plant, I do have here these. I think I'm gonna stamp something here as well. This will be probably just something easy. So what I'm gonna do? I think I'm gonna take the tabs. First I'm gonna distress the tabs. I do have here also this specimen. All of these are from, or most of these are from Tim Holtz. I'm gonna put glue here and I will try to cover it with... Yes, I think this way. Here I'm gonna put specimen. Yep. And now I will try to find the space where I will fit it. If I will fit it somewhere this way. Okay. So I'm gonna put a glue here and on all that specimen use it right here. I'm gonna take my flower and place that flower here. I think so. Okay. I'm gonna take my butterfly and it's kinda not strong enough so I'm gonna glue the butterfly on book page like this and I'm gonna glue the butterfly I think right here. Here. So I'm gonna put glue on the bottom. I'm gonna hide it there and kinda make a position. Maybe this number here. Yep. Hold, hold, hold, hold. Hold there my number. Keep it there. Come on. Stay. And this needs to be used. It's kinda damaged already so I have to use it because it's beautiful. I like it. So I'm gonna put glue on this big piece and then I will add that D for details. I hope I can somehow. Yes, I can. Stay. Detailess. Detailess. Okay. And what do you got here? Number three. Do I have somewhere space for number three? Of course I do. There is always space for numbers. Okay. I'm gonna take it off. Yeah, there is. I should use some softer softer piece of plastic. But this one it's kinda not softer, not elastic. Because this one it's kinda elastic. And here I do have somewhere stickers. Butterfly stickers. Or I can use some small one. With this small butterfly. So I'm gonna use that. And because it's piece of acetate so I'm gonna put strip of acetate right here. And maybe one more that way. Where is my acetate? And this way. And I'm gonna place my butterfly over it. Like this. And now we do have flying butterfly. Yeah. So that is my sharing for today. It's quite long. Not long. It's quite late. Oh, it's tomorrow already. Okay. So it's very late. This is my sharing for today. Probably tomorrow when I will have a look on it I will add there the strings. Maybe here something. This is my sharing for today. These are made from old Sarali boxes. This is also from some old box. This is can metal. I glued I open it can and glue it on piece of also that is one that brown back and then I used my dies and cut out the numbers. This is from packaging material. Or I mean those papers which are like dividers between stocks of items. So that it's cut out from that. And just that butterfly this is envelope, envelope. And this was proper card stock. And these are normal. But that rest it's mostly recycling. This is my sharing for today. I hope you did enjoy it. It doesn't work perfectly. Like I can't pull it too much just with one with one attack. But this way I can make that butterfly fly. So this is my sharing for today. Have a beautiful day. Thank you so much for visiting me today. Take care about yourself and I will see you soon. Bye.
