@ericschic65 I have used acetate and melted into shape using the heat-gun into a flower shape. You could layer it with fabric yes. Try stamping the acetate first and embossing it before making a flower from it! Let me know how you get on please! Hugs Fi x
@carbootjoe Hope you try them Jo, I have some of the material for you in about 8 colours, would you like some of each or do you have a particular colour you would like? xx
Love the flower Fiona.... By the way its called an AL moment at our age when you start forget, never mind you still have your craft kids and grandkids and all your lovely fans LOL... I get it to,,,
Great tutorial. What are the size of the circles Fiona? Oh and I guess my white colour mesh with those Styrofoam or paints that I've send you for the swap could be useful for making these flowers as well.
@iclassicful Yes you could use that material Meiqi :) sizes are 2 1/2, 2, 1 1/2 & 1. I also have some of the red and green mesh with gold thread that would work too! Actually Meiqi you could use anything and it doesn't have to be satin material either to make flowers! Try anything and see what you come up with pet! xx
Oooh. I see, i thought it will damaged the fabric if you're using the ligther to burn the edges depends on what type of fabric. Will try out some time. Nice flowers.
Oh Fiona! I have 2 of the happiest kiddos here! Allen and Bellie are thrilled that you said hello to them! Allen would like me to tell you that his bus driver forgot him on the bus, and had to bring him home late today (mommy's still a little unhappy) but he had a great day till then, and can't wait to go back. Bellie is just dancing around, and wants to make you another card tonight ; )
Beautiful flowers my dear, have fun with your new die! Thanks for thinking of the little ones!
@PaperAndApronStrings Oh dear god, how can anyone leave a child tut tut :( Nanna Fi-Fi is also a little upset hee hee!!! WHat a thing to hapen to him though. Oh bless Bellie wanting to make me a card, tell her I would love to receive one from her and thank you :) I love kids, I'm so sad that mine have all grown up BUT I now have their children to play with and pass things on! We have great days out and holidays with all the grandkids, best time of the year when we're with them :) xx
@Debcrafty1 It came from Olga as far as I remember! I've never seen it before :) I would have loved to have sent you some but it was only a small piece that was left! sorry !
@Mabu14 So much easier and quicker, wonder if I'll get arm ache putting them through the big shot now lol lol lol..............just kidding folks hee hee :) It was the only thing that sprung to mind to stop the material sticking, thankfully it worked first time!
Miss Fiona I hear there is a Hurricane Fiona. There are 2 forces of nature named Fiona. What are going to do? LOL. I do so hope everyone who's affected by these Hurricane's are & will be safe.
Love these. Very pretty.TFS Michelle
