I've been having fun with all the great Stix2 products again. I just loved the Die Cut Stencil sheet which gives the curly background (a Stizzix die).Just choose the die &die cut the sheet. Lay onto a piece of adhesive sheet (which has been attached to some white card) & cover with crystal glitter. Peel off the stencil & store away safely for next time & then cover the remaining exposed sticky surface with green glitter. The die cut flowers have been sculpted with a ball tool & shaded with a chalk inkpad. The centre cup shape has been made by  gluing the petals behind each other & then snipping with scissors to fringe them. The flowers have been assembled with the hot glue gun & then the centre filled with hot glue before covering with the seed beads from the set. The borders are made with the tapes in 2 widths & then covered with the seed beads, micro beads & glitter from the set.

Transfer Foils Toner and Laminator

For a while now we have been asked if our Transfer Foils can be used with a Toner ( Laser printer) and a laminator, we have happily been sending samples to those who have asked and then decided... Lets put them to the test?!?! Our wonderful demonstrator Kirsty Wiseman took on the task as she has previously experimented with this and the results were great!

Kirsty found they work excellent together and best with black ink.
