Fabric Card tutorial

I've had loads of requests for a little video on how I make fabric cards. So without further ado -- ta da!






I am in London at the moment, sprucing up Alex's flat. I had fond ideas that I was going to waft around like Ann Maurice (you know, that house doctor...............), carefully placing a potted plant here and there, maybe a spot of gentle de-cluttering. Alex however, had other ideas, she had made a list. So here I am covered in paint, honestly, it's everywhere, my hair has gone white in a single day. Today the kitchen and bathroom, tomorrow the sitting room.

  6. Enfys,
    These cards are to die for. My Red Hat ladies would go crazy. Do you ever sell these cards. I am not talented enough to make one. I am the Sandy From Kentucky. How is the weather in London? We don't have any snow and have had 50's the last few days... Have a great Tuesday and don't paint to much.

  19. Ha Ha Enfys, I can just see you as Ann Maurice - but much less annoying - I am sure you can still waft around as her once the painting is all done?? Good luck with it. xxx

  23. Enfys,

    I'm a long time follower of your blog. I just loved the video and had forgotten how much I love your fabric cards. I'm so glad you did the video.
    Is the Loralee fabric available in the U.S?
    I love your blog too!

    Take care... hope you have time to visit my blog.

  26. That is so darn cute. I love our fabric cards. I thought you had to use some iron on stiffener so it was great to see your video and that you just use glue stick. I will have to try this now. Is this fabric available in the U.S? I've asked at JoAnns about other fabrics that you have used and they didn't know what I was talking about.
