MAGPIE'S MUMBLINGS

A blog about my interests, which include fabric landscapes and various and assorted other artsy pursuits and sometimes known to contain mumblings of a random nature.

More experiments


I'm really liking these! The original instructions were on a site called 'Elizabeth Creates' (sorry, I don't have the link), but I changed them somewhat to refect what I have in my stash.
The base was cardstock which I covered lightly with some coloured doll stuffing (source unknown). After that I dropped little snippets of fibres on top and sprinkled it all lightly with embossing powder. Ironed it on a low setting between two pieces of parchment paper. Wait until it cools and peel the parchment away. Then I put a light 'coat' of Angelina Fibre on top and quickly ironed again (also between the parchment papers). This is the result and, unfortunately, the camera doesn't do the shimmer on these justice!

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
