Thank you for all the ideas to use crystal effects...I just bought it & not sure how to use it. I'm going to try it in the black part of a soccer ball....hope it works!

I realize this is an old thread but it is a goodie and I need to subscribe to it so I can find this great information later. Now I need to hope my Michael's actually carries the product since I don't need a SU order at the moment. ;)
I have also made faux brads using crystal effects.........I just punch out whatever size dot.....usually I use 1/4 inch......in whatever color cardstock you want your brad to be...........drop a dot of crystal effects on it and voila!!!!
I do this as well, I also use all those too cute mini shape punches (I buy because they're just too cute and usually only a dollar at micheals) and coat to make mini brads. I use the crystal effects to adhere them and no lump or covering up the back of a brad.
Something else I discovered somewhere that you can use like these products is Johnsons KLEAR floor polish. Especially good on acetate with inks/glitter etc added.
My crystal effects has thickened. Can you add anything to is to thin it down?
Has it become cloudy or starting to get that way. I thne just use it for glue. You can try a little bit of water but I have not have very much luck thinning it. I notice that if I don't use it in a year it gets thick and cloudy.
I didn't have any crazy glue to fix my glasses when the hinge broke on the arm, believe it or not a generous dollop of crystal effects and a couple hours drying time it not only held but still had some flexibility in the hinge!
