This is a technique I haven't tried before and it didn't help that I didn't read the instructions properly.... nor do I have the right equipment (as it were) but I did remember to turn the steam setting off before I used my domestic iron.... Intrigued? You need to check the book!!
I'm not overly happy with the finished tag, but for a first go at this page I suppose it's ok, and I quite enjoyed trying the technique, I am sure I will give it another go.
There are some great prizes on offer again, so pop over to Linda's for the details.
Thanks for looking.
This is wonderful, I love it!!
ReplyDeleteTerrific, it looks great. Annette x
ReplyDeletelooks cool to me hun... loving that colour you got on there :O)) I use a travel iron :O)) x
ReplyDeletei think you did a great job...that orange really gives it a batik feel. I was a bit intimidated by the iron but after a few false starts I got it to work :) Nan
ReplyDeleteGosh, Helen, I think it's GORGEOUS! I love the stamps you used, and the reverse image you got using the blended batik process works so beautifully with the heart stamp! Great use of that tissue tape, too, and your color choices are lovely! Be proud of this-- it's fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThis is too funny, I almost used that very stamp.... I must say, it looks great with this technique, Helen! Fab work, love the colors and how you attached the sentiment with the trinket pin, way to go!
ReplyDeleteThis is terrific. The color combo makes it pop. I really really want the cityscape stamp.
ReplyDeleteI love the contrast--I think your tag is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI Love that big sunburst it looks so cool!
