Between the sheets: Meeting: Part 2
 The Angelina Fibres were up next. These are soft, light, very iridescent fibres that fuse to themselves to create a material (or at least in the case of the bondable type). You can use them with or without stamps, but for our purposes, we used the stamps.
 The Angelina Fibres were up next. These are soft, light, very iridescent fibres that fuse to themselves to create a material (or at least in the case of the bondable type). You can use them with or without stamps, but for our purposes, we used the stamps.Instructions
-take a small amt. of Angelina fibres & place them upon a pre-inked stamp
-place a single layer of parchment on top of the stamp & fibre & apply iron
-we used a dry iron at med. heat
-apply med. pressure for a few secs. or until the stamp image starts to show through the parchment
-peel off the fibre from the stamp
Conclusions
-a wonderfully unique fibre that has great iridescent features
-takes on a different look depending on the background that it's placed on
-choose uncomplicated stamps for the best results
-use dark or bright inks on light fibres, metallics on dark fibres
-can use ink or no ink with the stamp method to achieve different results
The meeting was extremely good. We had a lot of fun (too much, according to my hubby who found it incredibly odd to watch 4 grown women drooling over a coloured blob that resembled a fur ball, lol). We laughed, chatted, & shared 3 different chocolate treats along with lots of coffee (don't worry, it was decaffeinated).
We also exchanged our ATC's (which I will post pics. of later), & had a great "Show & Share". I am so proud of this group & the very talented women that belong to it.
Peace out, Boop
