An elegant way to present the wine lamp from my other scan or of course an unopened bottle! Lay stamp flat on table, Bold images work bets, lay velvet bag fuzzy side down on stamp, spray velvet with water, then press very hot iron down for approx 30 seconds to emboss image into velvet. Let stamp cool before pressing again. (Didn't have any bold snowflake stamps, so I used Burst into Bloom.)

I love to stamp on velvet! I remember the first time I did it, I was so amazed that I was doing everything I could with it. This is so beautiful! What a fabuouls gift this would be with a nice bottle of wine (or sparkling cider for the people who don't drink) or a decorated bottle or a flavored oil or vinegar or anything that would fit into that beautiful velvet package!!! uh oh... I think I am going to have to break out my iron again and go nutty with the velvet! thanks for the inspiration!!
