hi everyone Ana kler here with a new
0:17
video tutorial and today I want to show
0:19
you how to make Hidden Clips these are
0:23
really cute DIY paper projects that you
0:26
can make from your scraps so I've taken
0:29
out my
0:30
scrapbook paper scraps these are graphic
0:34
45's different bits and pieces that I
0:37
have left and I want to show you how to
0:40
make them
0:42
into really cute DIY paper
0:46
embellishments that you can add to your
0:48
junk journals to your scrapbook pages
0:51
mini albums whatever so what you're
0:54
going to need is just a plain piece of
0:56
paper we're going to fold it in half I'm
0:59
using a large paper clips they're 2 in
1:02
then we're going to insert the clip to
1:05
the folded paper the job of the folding
1:09
paper is basically to be an extension of
1:12
the
1:14
clip this is where we're going to insert
1:16
our tag or page or whatever and we want
1:20
it not to search for the clip so the
1:23
paper is basically the large clip so I'm
1:27
going to take another piece of double
1:30
the card sto fold it in half and then
1:32
really punch the very very edge to
1:36
create a tiny little hole I'm using a
1:39
half in punch and we're going to insert
1:42
the top of the paper clip
1:45
inside the
1:48
paper the double-sided card
1:51
stock and then we'll have that
1:54
little part of the clip popping out of
1:58
the paper now we're going to glue the
2:02
two
2:05
papers doesn't really matter now if
2:07
you're not to size we're going to cut
2:09
everything later first we need to glue
2:13
it we're going to glue one
2:20
side and then we're going to flip it and
2:22
glue the other side now you can make
2:24
them as large or as small as you want
2:27
you can add lots and lots of
2:29
embellishment ments on them they're
2:32
really
2:33
cute they're really
2:36
fun they really make a great addition to
2:39
any paper project that you
2:43
make so let's glue that and that top
2:46
piece of the clip we're going to attach
2:49
a chain to it and create
2:53
dangles from there so that's going to be
2:56
really really fun so once I have
2:58
everything glued down I can take my
3:00
scissors and trim it down to the size
3:03
that I want
3:05
my paper clip to
3:08
be the only thing that you need
3:12
to consider or to take into account is
3:16
the length of the paper clip so you
3:19
don't want to make it the paper too
3:21
short because you don't want the clip to
3:24
pop out of the end
3:29
and then another thing you need to do is
3:32
pick out the front where you want your
3:35
front to be and then trim it down a
3:38
little bit so we'll get that difference
3:42
between the front and the
3:43
back that will make it a lot easier for
3:46
us to insert
3:48
it like
3:50
this because you'll see where to insert
3:55
the the clip it
3:57
won't when the edges are are the same
4:01
size it's really hard to know where one
4:03
starts and the other ends and it's
4:05
really hard to insert that tag or page
4:08
in between
4:10
them so I'm going to give them all sort
4:13
of a aged vintage look so I'm going
4:17
to ink all my edges this is a distress
4:21
ink I'm using the photo vintage
4:24
color and then once I have the
4:27
base also going to to Ink that piece
4:32
that is slightly
4:34
longer and now it's time to embellish
4:38
all the the front and the back remember
4:41
the paper clip has two
4:44
sides so you want to embellish the front
4:46
and the back so I'm just going to make a
4:48
little
4:50
Tab and this is such a great way to use
4:54
all your leftover papers and scraps
4:59
don't know how many scraps you have I
5:03
don't know what size of scraps you keep
5:06
but you can really make fun things
5:09
with very small pieces so I almost never
5:12
throw out
5:14
anything and the fun part is that you
5:17
can even make pockets and interactive
5:19
elements to add to your paper
5:23
clip so I'm just going to cut out a
5:27
butterfly and I'm thinking
5:30
how I'm going to assemble that so this
5:32
piece is going to be a pocket so I just
5:34
apply glue to three sides you know how
5:37
to make a pocket
5:40
right and
5:42
then the
5:43
pocket is glued down with
5:48
this pretty
5:51
butterfly just going to add a line of
5:53
text this is again it's all from the
5:55
paper scraps that I have
6:02
so I'm just going to add
6:06
that see I'm just using that side of
6:09
paper to create a little
6:16
tag I'm going to make a hole in the
6:20
tag if you have a punch you can use a
6:22
punch to create little tags and that tag
6:25
I'm just going
6:28
to of course ink it I'm going to punch a
6:32
hole in it and
6:33
then connect it to a chain and that
6:37
chain is going to dangle from that paper
6:40
clip piece that is popping out so now I
6:44
have a
6:46
hole I'm going to put an eyelid in the
6:50
hole it's always a good idea if you want
6:53
to hang a chain it won't rip the paper
6:59
and I'm using my crocodile and for such
7:02
a little tiny punch you need
7:06
the uh forgot the number I think it's
7:09
number
7:12
four for whoever has
7:15
a
7:17
crocodile now let's bring a chain and
7:20
we're going to connect the
7:22
chain to
7:24
both the tag and
7:29
the paper clip first just going to take
7:32
a jump
7:35
ring sometimes I use my finger sometimes
7:37
I use another
7:40
tool
7:42
whatever you feel comfortable
7:45
with so first I want to attach the chain
7:50
to the paper clip so then I'll be able
7:53
to figure out how long I want it to
7:56
be with the tag attached to it
8:01
it so I'll need another jump ring to
8:05
insert to the
8:13
tag and then I'll be able to see how
8:16
long of a chain I
8:20
need so I want it to dangle but I don't
8:23
want it to be too
8:27
long so this looks like a good size good
8:32
length let's cut it
8:38
out so now I can go ahead and attach it
8:41
to the tag so that is really really fun
8:46
isn't that fun I love those dangling
8:52
things you can write something on it if
8:54
you
8:55
want so now we can go ahead and work on
8:58
our other side and this is basically how
9:01
I make all my tags my sorry my paper
9:06
clip just added a little another
9:10
butterfly to the front so this is how I
9:13
make all my hidden paper clips
9:18
and you can make them of course from any
9:20
paper that you want to match it to your
9:23
project you can have like a
9:27
stash sit down one day make a few and
9:31
then see
9:33
how you can add them to whatever project
9:36
that you want just play around with them
9:39
so I have another
9:42
butterfly which of course everything has
9:45
to be
9:49
Inked and then I'm also going to add a
9:52
little piece of lace if you have
9:55
leftover pieces of fabric ribbons laces
9:59
they can also look really pretty on
10:02
those hidden paper
10:06
clips so I'm just going to add
10:09
that so we're going to add all
10:13
that to
10:16
our other side of the paper
10:24
clip I think it looks pretty good
10:29
am I going to add something on the top
10:32
yes so even a piece like
10:36
this which is
10:39
definitely doesn't look
10:42
much if you cut it out it can still be
10:46
added to something as a as a
10:51
detail so sometimes you need to look at
10:53
your scraps as Treasures because even
10:56
something like this can really add to
11:00
your
11:01
overall
11:03
collage creation this is sort of a
11:06
collage what we're making here because
11:08
we're taking pieces and combining them
11:10
to
11:12
one that looks really
11:15
good and I love this dangly tag in the
11:20
pocket so this is our first paper clip
11:24
let's make another
11:26
one let's go green this time
11:31
time so we're going to fold our paper
11:34
and then fold the double-sided card
11:38
stock actually don't really have to use
11:40
a double-sided card stock because the
11:42
inside does not show so you can just
11:45
use a plain card
11:49
stock and punch the hole that
11:53
will be for the paper clip
12:00
so let's insert our paperclip and then
12:04
attach both sides of the card
12:10
stock just going slightly faster here
12:13
because you already know the basic idea
12:17
you got the technique so now it's just
12:20
having some more ideas fun ideas to
12:23
create those
12:29
paper clips so I'm going to leave this
12:32
quite big I like the size this is maybe
12:35
just trim it down a little bit on the
12:42
bottom this one I really like that it is
12:51
big no just going to trim it in the
12:55
bottom and then don't forget to make the
12:58
front slight shorter than the back and
13:01
I'm also going
13:02
[Music]
13:05
to round the edges on this
13:10
one these little details give them a
13:13
really good
13:19
finish when the punch doesn't work use
13:22
your
13:23
scissors okay so I've already Inked the
13:27
edges
13:29
so now I want to add all my little
13:34
scraps
13:37
another layer to the front
13:45
here then we're going to have another
13:49
pocket those pockets are really
13:52
fun so this was a
13:54
frame from a tag that I
13:57
removed I like the
14:00
shape so this one will go
14:05
here and we're going to attach those two
14:08
pieces together to create
14:12
the pocket
14:14
basically I look like this
14:18
eye kind of
14:21
creepy so all that is going to be a
14:23
pocket so I only add the glue on three
14:27
sides leaving the top without any glue
14:30
so I can
14:37
add things under it so I this piece was
14:40
too small so I glue two pieces together
14:42
to create a little
14:46
tag again no scrap is too
14:52
small it's around the edges
14:56
here and that will be a fun tag
15:04
so we need to make a hole in the
15:07
tag and attach a chain to
15:10
it I want this bottle to be in the
15:18
background so that will be glued I'm not
15:20
going to use that as an insert for my
15:22
pocket this is just going to be another
15:24
embellishments
15:27
here okay so now I can go ahead punch a
15:31
hole in my tag and add my
15:36
chain also going to
15:38
add an eyelid for this
15:42
hole always really good
15:49
idea and then let's bring in the jump
15:53
rings and the chain and we can go ahead
15:59
attach
16:01
that okay so now we have our tag
16:06
attached let's see how it turned out
16:08
sorry I'm off camera here
16:11
okay oh I like
16:14
it so let's make another pocket on the
16:18
other
16:21
side just attaching these bottles to the
16:24
word this is all from scraps
16:30
and let's make another pocket
16:34
here and since it's had the the
16:37
medicinal and the bottles have such a
16:39
like a pharmacy Vibe let's
16:44
create a little let's say subscription
16:48
pad or book or something even that
16:50
little scrap
16:52
piece add
16:54
something hope you get the idea about
16:56
using scraps already
16:59
so this one is going to be like
17:01
a
17:06
pad so I'm just going to Ink the edges
17:09
and then I'm just going to use my staple
17:12
stapler
17:14
sorry to connect some plain white papers
17:21
to the back to create sort of a little
17:25
tiny notepad or notebook or whatever
17:31
so first I want to attach them and then
17:33
I'm just going to cut
17:40
around so now I'm also going to add a
17:43
little bit of
17:44
ink to the white papers cuz they're too
17:48
white so that's
17:52
fun that's not straight
18:03
just a little tiny bit of
18:08
inking and some of the pages not
18:15
everything okay so like this pad is now
18:18
ready isn't that fun so we have our
18:23
second hidden paperclip tag
18:26
ready let's see how it looks
18:30
looks and you insert it on something
18:32
Isn't that
18:34
cool I really like that so I have made
18:38
two
18:41
