1) Place the cd in the box and heat until it just starts to melt.
2) When the cd has cooled enough to handle use the scissors to cut it into pieces starting at the out edge and cutting towards the center. You may have to reheat the cd several times to get the pieces you want & the plastic is difficult to cut. Persevere!
3) Use the brush to coat the front and back of the cd piece with the permanent ink refill. Paint one side and use the heat tool to dry it and then do the same with the other side. (If you don’t like inky fingers, wear gloves! Also, protect your work space with scrap paper.)
4) Stamp the word image using the black ink onto the cellophane. Let dry then trim off the excess cellophane.
5) Apply the versamark ink to the front of the cd piece but not where the “hole” was.
6) Sprinkle the clear ep over the ink and place the piece in the box.
7) Attach the forceps to the area where the “hole” was or hold on there with the tweezers.
8) Use the heat tool to melt the powder until smooth.
9) Apply another coat of clear powder & heat. Release the forceps.
10) Keeping the heat tool running to the side, use your fingers to sprinkle the pearl eps on the hot clear ep, apply the heat tool to melt the pearls into the clear but do not over heat or you will loose the colors.
11) Repeat step 10 for the Goddess Gold & Kaleidoscope eps. Turn off the heat tool.
12) Crinkle the cellophane and smooth it back out.
13) Carefully place the phrase on top of the very warm ep. Make sure no edges stick up.
14) Use the heat tool to adhere the cellophane to the surface but do not over heat or you will melt the cellophane. Let cool.
15) Apply the versamark ink to the front of the cd piece but not where the “hole” was.
16) Sprinkle the clear ep over the ink and place the piece in the box.
17) Attach the forceps to the area where the “hole” was or hold on there with the tweezers.
18) Use the heat tool to melt the powder until smooth.
19) Apply another coat of clear powder & heat. Release the forceps. Let cool.
20) Use the paint pen to coat the front & sides of the “stamp” piece. Let dry.
21) Stamp the face of the sun using the black ink onto the “stamp” piece. Let dry.
22) Use the extra strength glue to attach the “stamp” piece to the area where the “hole” was at the bottom of the cd piece. Let dry over night.
23) Attach the pin back.
