Thanks for watching my Diy Glass Cabochon tutorial!!
What you need:
·Glass Cabochons (can be found online etsy, ebay, etc)
·Scissors
·Annie Howes Glamour Seal
·Printed Images (Please note these should be the same size as your glass cabochons. Also the paper matters as well. You can use laser printed color paper or high quality photo paper. You have to test it out to make sure there is no splotches or ink bleeds in the paper as it also depends on the printer and ink it uses. I use a high quality canon photo printer on glossy canon paper)
·Settings for your cabochons. Make sure they are the matching size of your glass!
My current set up is: Glossy Kodak photo paper with our Canon Inkjet Pixma ix6820

I bought the glamor seal and E6000. I attached the glass and it worked beautifully with the glamor seal. Unfortunately ,the E6000 went through the images. ): I used photo paper and it did bleed through. PLEASE HELP! When you use the E6000 how much do you use? Did I use too much maybe? I am so disappointed I ruined 25 items.

@projectpinupgirl 7 жыл бұрын

Oh no! Yes you only need to use a tiny bit. It's a pretty strong glue so you do not need to use alot. Try and spread it out thinly too when you apply it. You can take all the defective ones off and soak them in water then the images will come of the glass and you can re-do the glamour seal process. Hope that helps!

@AaronShaunBrennan 7 жыл бұрын

Thank you! I put a lot of the E6000 on. I guess it was too much and went through the image. I'll put a lot less on this time. Thanks so much for your help! (:

great tutorial! I am interested in that glue. Saw another tutorial that used the E6000 as the adhesive between glass and print... maybe this glamour seal has less odor, and not as stringy?

@projectpinupgirl 5 жыл бұрын

Very good question! The glamour seal is pretty much like a pva glue. The e6000 is pretty toxic and I have tried both but prefer the glamour seal as it dries way faster than e6000 and way safer!

HI! I have the paper and the ink and even the glamour seal down pat, the only issue I have is that when I trim the excess paper off, I start to notice the glass separate from the tile a bit creating a thin silver line around the edges, I suppose air is getting in? This has happened even after drying overnight. How can I trim the paper without that happening?

Hello.. I see that you recommend glossy Kodak photo paper with an inkjet canon printer, which is what I have. I was looking at Annie Howes website and they don't recommend this type of paper, but do recommend matte paper, 90# or cover weight. Have you used the matte paper? What's the difference? Thanks Roxy

@projectpinupgirl 7 жыл бұрын

ROXANNA ROADARMEL hi! I've used matte but it really dulls the image. So thats why I use this paper because its a medium gloss so its perfect for this kind of crafting!

@projectpinupgirl 7 жыл бұрын

Mark Roadarmel I run a professional business and I have never had issues with using this particular paper with my canon inkjet and the Annie Howes. One of the main reasons I use this as well, is that matte paper will let the e6000 bleed through the paper. With the gloss I never have this problem. Also the image never fades over time.

I have been using your methods and I still get silvering around the edges of the print. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. Using same glue, flat surface, laser printed images on medium weight gloss paper, etc. any ideas what would still causes the silvering? They look great when I assemble but hours later they have silvering bubbles. I can’t even get to the bezel part of assembly because I can’t get any that don’t have some kind of silvering. Feeling very defeated.

@projectpinupgirl 4 жыл бұрын

Oh no! I am so sorry to hear that. I personally do not use laser printed paper, I use my ink jet Canon Pixma with kodak gloss paper. I would try maybe a matte laser? A friend of mine uses the matte version. Sometime it all depends on the pressure you are using as well when applying the glass. Don't feel defeated, its all about trial and error especially when you do not have the same set up like i do. Try multiple ways and see what ways work for you!

@candicane118 4 жыл бұрын

Ok I’ll keep trying other things. Thank you for your response. I love that your technique doesn’t require days and days of coating the paper with sealant like I’ve seen in other tutorials. That would take the fun out of it.

@candicane118 Жыл бұрын

@@biffmalibu3052 unfortunately no I didn’t. When I looked closer at others selling them on Etsy I can easily see horrible large silver areas that make it look cheap. I was able to get minimal silver areas but I didn’t like having any. So I’m assuming there’s no way around it when adhering a cabachon to a pre-printed image. I think they’re fine if you’re gonna use them for your own use or to give family but I wouldn’t sell them.
