Fabric Scrap Die Cuts

The butterflies are die-cut from fabric scraps. I didn't have any success die-cutting fabric with my dies and cuttlebug.......finally I tried coating both sides of the fabric with a generous dose of fevicol, drying with a heat gun and then cutting, n guess what............it worked beautifully! 
I've used some Pie Lane bling ( all the butterfly centers) and borders.
This is based on the ICRC10 challenge.
Have a super Sunday!

  7. Juhi no doubt these are amazing but u can also just paste the fabric on card sheet , allow it to dry n then cut .... u will get perfect and clean edges. we used this method for our college projects where we had to make small garments for presentations ............ it really works :)
