Custom Twill Tape

Have you ever stamped directly on to twill tape? Have you noticed that the images and colors aren't as crisp and vibrant? Well, here's a way to end that challenge; customize your twill tape by heat setting your images onto the tape using transfer paper! Yep...the same stuff that you use to transfer images onto t-shirts, you can use to add some spice to your twill tape! Cut the transfer paper to fit the twill tape. Stamp your image onto the transfer paper using SU! Basic Black Classic Ink. Color in the images using the SU! Markers. Place transfer paper, image side down, onto the twill tape and heat set with your iron set on the high setting. You only need to iron the image for a few seconds. Let the transfer paper cool and peel off. Then, to remove some of the shiny stuff, put the twill tape under a sheet of parchment paper. Iron for a few seconds, let cool, and peel off. There you have it......your very own customized twill tape! Stay tuned for more twill tape ideas!!

Liquid Applique Holiday Card


This is a great card, isn't it? The 'snow' that you see is created with Liquid Applique. Just apply a dab to the cardstock and blast with your heat gun....and, poof! The paint turns puffy and 3-dimensional! An easy, fun holiday card!
