Couple of Questions

[Faereygirl]

Alright...I did search and couldn't find anything on these questions...

1.) Does anyone know if Stickles holds well on fabric? I have a fabric scrapbook album thing that I would like to put a bit of glitz on if possible and the Stickles would be gorgeous!

2.) This doodling thing that I keep hearing about. Is there a tutorial or something somewhere that I missed? I'm not at all gifted in the drawing department, but I have seen some examples of this that are just STUNNING!

I think that is all for now.....thanks!

I would hesitate to use it on anything that will get a lot of handling? But, I would think that if it works well on paper, it would work well on your fabric album cover. . . can't guarantee it, however. There ARE some products designed to work on fabric, with glitter--you mightlook for Tulip Brand fabric paints at WalMart/Michael's, etc. They have some beautifully glittery ones, and they're relatively inexpensive. I also would bet they work on paper, as well. ;)

Have you tried a google? I think Paper Crafts does indeed have an online "doodling" tutorial over at their website, but I could be mistaken. I haven't had my full and proper cuppa yet this a.m. chuckle!

HTH,

Julie! Shame on you....not drinking your caffine fix yet! ;)

I did check Google....but nothing was coming up that I could find a link to. :(

[JulieHRR]

Hmmm. Well, I coulda' sworn in the last PC newsletter I got, there was a tutorial mentioned on doodling.

I'm on the wrong 'putah tho. Lemme go take a look-see on what's in my inbox on my laptop.

Hang tight.

And your cards have totally sold me on those cute A Muse stamps. ;)

Alas, my aging memory failed me. :( The newsletter features a reference to some CD you can BUY that makes for quick and easy doodling.

There IS a step by step article on doodling in August/Sept 06 paper Crafts, p. 39.

That must be what my brain was clinging to . . .

Sorry. :(

And, of course, there are otheres reknowned in the scrapbooking world for their doodling, such as Heidi Swapp.
