These are samples I made at Midwest Angel Gathering.
This was a really neat thing. We stamped on velvet, using an iron. And then this is backed onto a pin.
Some people asked for more detail- Here it is-
This is the company who came and demoed this for us- http://www.heartlooms.com/velvet_emb...structions.htm Their velvet isn't cheapest available, but apparently not all velvets work. Theirs does. Or you can play trial and error at the craft store.
They said that any deeply etched rubber stamp will work, as long as there is not too much detail lines.
We used a small square of velvet, put the velvety side down on the stamp (which was face up on an ironing board) spritzed it with water, held the iron down for about 20 seconds, and then put some peel and stick adhesive on it. Since we were making a pin, we then put a sheet of acetate on that to help it hold it's shape- THEN cut it out. Then we attached a pin to the back
