Flamingoes are so 'IN' right now, so why not jazz up your favourite living space with this easy, home decor step-by-step from the lovely Katie Skilton!
Hello..
I would like to share quick tutorial with you using
the Sizzix Thinlits Die Set Funky Flamingo. This is such a fun
die and one which can really set your creativity loose. These dies will
be on a show coming to you very soon so keep a look out!
With
such a fun die it means that you can really add colour and texture to your
projects and it works really well.
Here
is a quick tutorial on how I created this piece of home decor.
Materials:
- Sizzix® Thinlits™ Die Set 3PK - Funky Flamingo
- Sizzix® Thinlits™ Die Set 7PK - Hello Doily
- Embroidery Hoop
- Fabric
- Cardstock
- Pink Pom Pom
- Twine
- Resin Flower
- Sequins
Method:
Step 1
Place the fabric into the embroidery hoop and pull tight. Trim around to remove all the excess fabric from the back.
Step 2
2. Die-cut the Flamingo twice, once from pink
and once from black. Trim the legs and
the beak from the black and adhere to the pink.
Step 3
Adhere the pom pom to the Flamingo body and
die-cut the wing. Adhere together.
Step 4
Die-cut the doily and the scalloped circle
from the Hello Doily Die Set and layer together.
Step 5
Adhere the doily to the embroidery hoop. Add the flamingo.
Step 6
Embellish using tulle ribbon, twine and a
resin flower. Add a few sequins.
This
is a very simple project to create and great for adding summer fun to any home. The
pom pom just adds some fun detail to the project.
I hope
you like this project and I would love to see your take on it!
Katie :)
