How to make your own gems for cardmaking

How to make your own gems and embelishments

It's so simpl to make your own gems! As Lou shows you in her tip of the day tutorial simply create a little blob of glue and the decorate with embossing powder or glitter.

You can also just use hot glue on it's own!

The resulting gems look like they are sugar coated, you can make lots of gems at the same time and because you choose the colour you can perfectly coordinate the gems with the card you are creating. You just need to add a little blob of glue to adhere them to your card.

Have you ever made your own DIY gems or embelishments? We would love to hear about how that went in the comments.
