Help! I Ran Out of Sequins!

Remember when I mentioned HERE that when I make cards, I make a least 24 of each design?  Well, sometimes that is a little problematic.  It’s even more of a catastrophe when it’s ten o’clock on a Saturday night and I run out of supplies.  See those three little gold circles on the card?

They are supposed to be gold sequins from the 2013-2015 In Color Sequin Assortment.  They NEEDED to be gold because I tried using the other fun colors in the bunch and they just didn’t look right.  Yes, out of over 750 tiny sequins, I NEEDED more gold.  What to do?  Why, make my own sequins, of course!

I used the Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder with some scraps of the Foil Sheets – Gold to create some shiny polka dots.  I used the 1/4″ circle handheld punch to punch out each little dot, and adhered each circle with a glue dot.  It was so easy to do and it achieved the look the I was going for.  Success!
