Today's Lesson From The Craft Room: Follow Your Waking Dreams
Have you ever paid attention to what your internal voice is telling you upon awakening? I listened very carefully yesterday morning when, upon awakening, I had a waking dream about embossing on fabric! I had never thought of it before, and since I just started sewing last week, somehow the thought just popped into my mind! I love heat embossing on paper, so why not fabric?! Listen to your waking dreams - you never know where they might take you!
Today's card uses my heat embossed fabric technique! I posted a video on my blog and on my YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/mwecksler) if you want to check out how to do it! I used the Charming stamp set and white craft ink with gold embossing powder on my fabric. I made the flower from fabric that I ran through the Big Shot with the Flower Folds die. I also ran the black card stock through the Big Shot with the Finnial Press embossing folder. I also heat embossed the greeting in black on the brushed gold card stock. I hope you like it!
