I am so excited to share a fun project using the March 2025 Mixed Media Kit along with the Card, Tag and More Kit. Mixing both of these kits together for this fun Decorative Not Pad Holder just came together perfectly. I have a step by step tutorial below along with the video tutorial that gives a bit more details. Links are throughout the blog post and I have photos of the kits just click on the links to be directed to the Tres Jolie Shop.
To start our project open the clay package and the mould. Roll out the clay and place inside the mould. Be sure to make your edges flat against the sides of mould.
While the clay dries and forms lets add our paper to the large door tag/hanger. I used the 3D Gel from January Mixed Media Kit. This 3D Gel is like an adhesive, so I tore my scraps, laid them down over lapping them a bit and gluing them down.
Here is what the finished door hanger looks like after I adhered all the papers down. I also covered the back. To get the edges smooth you can use a nail file around the edges and inside the hole.
Next I used the blue shimmer powder, add a bit of water and mix. I then brushed on the blue shimmer over the areas where the torn edges meet on top of one another. After applying the water color you can dry using the heat gun. I also used the Gold paint from the Mixed Media Kit to paint the edges of the door hanger.
Once the clay was a bit dry I took out the images and painted using both the blue shimmer paint and the gold.
Next I cut the frame in half and adhered part of the frame to top of the tag, as shown below. Adhere it using wet adhesive. I used the 3D Gel. I adhered the other half of the frame down below, including the tea cup, bow and the small little medallion.
Next I added the little strap that wraps around the front to the back. (see video for more details).
Slip in the back part of your note pad.
Here's what the bottom looks like with the other half of the frame.
Here is the finished Decorative Not Pad Holder. I added magnets to the back so I could place on my refrigerator. You will need strong magnets so it will not slide down the frig. You can use a small note pad as shown below or you can use a small spiral note pad as well.
I hope you enjoyed today's step by step tutorial. I loved how this project turned out and it only took an hour to create it. Definitely a quick and easy project. You can give this as gift or use it for yourself.
