I know I have been showing a lot of pillows lately. I am deciding right now to stop apologizing about it though. As my wise husband said "A photographer wouldn't apologize for showing another 8 x 10, it's a good size canvas!" He's right, a pillow is just that. It's a good size canvas on which to experiment. (He's a keeper, my husband.) Today's experiment uses Sizzix dies and printmaking!
The doves are made by printing fabric from embossing folders!
The letters are made with freezer paper stencils, cut with Sizzix dies.
You'll want to read all the details! Check out the full tutorial on the Sizzix blog today.
I'm enjoying your pillows! Your husband is right - we women can be so hard on ourselves.
