New Cork Sheets



Using Silhouette Cork Sheets - Cover an MDF Shape - Weld a pattern to a shape - by Janet Packer for Silhouette UK Blog


Hiya, this week I had the opportunity to play with the NEW Silhouette® Cork Sheets and this post on the Silhouette UK Blog was the result.

I also included a little seasonal project, using the cork to cover an MDF or wood shape for Easter/Spring. I've also been following a course on the Creative Live App called Craft Photography Fundamentals tutored by Candice Stringham. I'm loving trying out her hints for top down photos.

Over on the blog I show how I made these Easter/Spring decorations by covering MDF shapes with a mix of cork and faux leather paper.

Yes, I'm very impressed with the cork sheets, loads of texture with minimal thickness - can't wait to try them out on cards.
