I've been playing again using another demo I saw at the quilt show I was at last weekend. This time it's with Angelina fibres. I used the 'hot fix' fibres that fuse together when they are heated. I inked up a star stamp with Staz-on ink and layered the fibres on the top, covered the whole thing with parchment paper and ironed it for about 30 seconds. The heat makes the fibres form a fabric with the stamp design on, it can then be cut out. It took a while for me to get the iron to the right temperature, too cold and the fibres don't fuse and too hot and the fibres become dull.
Here's the final result

And this is the card I made using it:
Recipe: The stamp is from the new range at LOTV which I've coloured in with Promarkers. The papers are all from stash from last Christmas, the sentiment from Craftwork cards and I think the poinsettia is from Papermania. I've also used some red stickles glitter in the corners.
