Finally learnt how to staple a quilt to a canvas to finish my project.

I sewed the quilt onto a perfect cotton background, then stapled it to a canvas. 

The quilt was made previously by using the heat tool to burn holes on Yupo paper. 

The colors were added with alcohol inks. I also added net and paper to complete the quilt.

Cats with net and heat tool

Organza tree

Traced around the metal tree on the left over 3 layers of organza with a heat tool. Another quick silhouette project...liked using 3 black organza layers. The tree is about 8 inches tall.

Using both positive and neagative shapes

Net Waves, heat tool

Cut 2 layers of net of a wave thin metal die with a heat tool and included it in an ATC

Organza, heat tool and thin metal palm tree dies

Cut black organza around thin metal palm tree dies and added to postcards with a beach paradise theme for another swap.

Sheer ribbon and heat tool

Cut around printed leaves on a sheer ribbon with the heat tool. It is so quick and easy.

ziploc bag, heat tools, thin metal die

Using a thin metal die, I cut a ziploc bag with 2 layers and included some heart confetti using the green top as a lid. While I thought it would work well, the ziploc bag is too flimsy. Next time I will use a thicker plastic or  a thicker transparancy to cut out the shape.

Stamp n cut memory jars

Stamp n cut with heat tools memory jars added on fabric postcards with a book theme. I also stamped the back before mailing them out to my online friends

Stamp and cut synthetics With the heat tool

First I stamped on sheers. 

Then I stamped on a gray synthetic. 

I cut out 1 layer, 2 layers, and 2 layers and  clear plastic on top of the gray synthetic with a heat tool.

Will use some of these in a postcard swap . 

Toothbrush holder and sheers

Continued cutting sheers and net with the heat tool

Toothbrush holder and heat tools..continued

Toothbrush holder and heat tool

Took a metal toothbrush holder, turned it upside down and cut shapes with a heat tool  using different colors of nylon and net and layered them. Can see some possibities for creating more designs. 

Metal sunglasses and heat tools

Cut out 2 layers of black organza with different thin metal die sunglasses and a heat tool and added one pair to the summer ATC swap

metal stencil and heat tool

Cut out 2 layers of blue net with the heat tool and the metal stencil. Placed 2 layers of cream net underneath and cut out the outlines only of  all the 4 layers ...they were fused together at the edges. Looks really neat as all 4 layers are semi transparent as I hold them up to the light.
