Is it really four week since our last meeting, how time flies.
First of all, before I forget, we can use the room from 7 o'clock so last month we decided that if anyone can get there for 7 we may as well make a start and be using the room, if it's a rush no worries, just come for half past.
This month we will be playing with Shrink Plastic, not something I use a lot of so Margaret has kindly offered to demo this. You can make allsorts of wonderful things with it so don't really know why I don't use it. It's great for charms and jewellery or making embellishments for your cards.
I will provide the Shrink Plastic but you need to bring your heat guns, some large stamps and permanent ink such as Stazon or Archival, sharp scissors (tweezers may be handy too), a large acrylic block for flattening and pencil crayons. You can also use punches/dies so if you have any you want to try bring them along.
Your stamps need to be fairly big and easy enough to cut out as the plastic shrinks to 7 times smaller and 7 times thicker, as you can see on the Santa image. Pencil crayons are the best thing to colour it with as the colour intensifies when heated.
There's one birthday this month and it's mine, yippee so on that note I will see you all next week.
