HI!
Today's post is a bit of a long one and I apologize ahead of time. If I had not lost my voice, you would have had a video to watch, but instead I have a rather long, but hopefully detailed picture tutorial for you.
I will be sharing with you some fun stamping techniques and how to make paper cloth. My finished project is a fun little pillow I created using these techniques! You can stop with the initial stamping ideas if you aren't into making a mess or sewing, for a fun way to personalize and create your own background papers.
As for the paper cloth, it is a type of cloth created using muslin, white glue and tissue paper and other thin papers. I decided to try to create my own version of it using Bo Bunny papers, instead of tissue paper or thinner papers. The thicker papers make the finished product less flexible than your traditional paper cloth and therefore it does not bend quite as easily. However, it still bends enough to work for this project.
OUT FOR PUBLICATION
I hope this tutorial was helpful and that it made sense. If you have questions, please let me know!
And if you decide to create one yourself or are inspired in any way to create something from this post, we would love to see it!
Happy stamping, sewing and crafting!!!

ReplyDeleteWOW! what an amazing project. I can't wait to try it. When you get voice back will you still consider doing a video?
ReplyDeleteThis is really cool, and I cannot wait to be able to make one myself. I do have a question. When placing your paper squares on the muslin, do you use any of the Mod Podge on the top of each square? Since this was not mentioned, I am guessing that you do not. Thanks for the marvelous idea.
ReplyDeleteWOWZA!!!!!! What a fabulous post Juliana!!!!!! Super cool!
ReplyDeleteYes, I did put Mod Podge on top of the papers as well.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all of your wonderfully kind comments!
I just love it, so gorgeous, wowsers there is so much work gone into this, not sure if I have the patience, but you did an awesome job.
ReplyDeleteWow how awesome is that! I'm really admiring your creativity Juliana!
ReplyDeleteThis is completely and utterly amazing just like Juliana!!! Such a great idea and look at that perfect stitching!
ReplyDeleteOMG! Speechless!! (no pun intended!) I have made similar quilted pillows from all fabric, but to do this with BoB paper blows my mind. It is incredible!!! BTW - you're rockin' your new sewing machine! I love the idea of PAPER FABRIC - you really have me thinking. Plenty of muslin around here from my quilting days - thanks so much for sharing this Juliana!
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOODNESS!! JULIANA! You are soooooo creative and fabulous! Wowieeeeeee!

ReplyDeleteThat is an amazing progect!
ReplyDeleteHOLY COW!!! THAT IS JUST AWESOME! I never would have guessed that you could do that! Thank you so much for sharing it! I can't wait to give it a try with some of my favorite BB papers -- I have so many, maybe I'll have a whole house filled with these cute pillows! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou constantly amaze and impress me with your creativity! I would NEVER have thought to use paper for a pillow. Question - is it soft? I would be afraid to rip it. I am in love with it - and I am going to make at least one. Don't know exactly when, but I will, for sure! Thank you so much for being you!!!
