angelina fibres

This is my first go at using angelina fibres despite having them in my drawer for years.! I think I got them at a show. You know how it is, the demonstrator makes it look so easy so you merrily make your purchase, get it home put it in the drawer and months later you come across them and wonder a. what is this? b. how did she use it? c.what the heck am I going to use it for?
No wonder it lasts so long.
Well this is what I used it for, a rather pretty birthday card. I stamped the butterfly onto some acetate and then ironed some fibres onto the reverse. Once cut out it was really very effective.


I'm now hoping that it won't be years before I use it again.
