I love trying new things! On Monday I learned how to use freezer paper to create a stencil (tutorial here at Betty Bee's Buzz). For my shirt I used my circuit cartridge "Wall Decor & More" to cut the butterfly, then I used Tulip fabric paints to paint the butterfly. But I didn't stop there:
I have had these pictures set aside to do a LO and Betty's freezer paper technique was just the inspiration I needed! I took a paper napkin from our July 4th party last year and ironed on the freezer paper:
When I cut it out, it sort of looks laminated. I backed it with white card stock so that the Statue of Liberty and Constitution were more visible (less transparent.) Who would guess this was a re-purposed napkin?
Do you love your Cricut? Link up here; thanks, Bonnie!

Stinkin love the layout, and it's perfect with/for those pictures!!! Thank you for coming in and commenting on my forward fitness progress! We've gone from eating 10% of our diet as fruits and veggies to around 73%, it's really, really something! I wasn't sure we'd do it! But wow we've reaped the benefits in all sorts of bodily systems ROTFL

Hi June,
This is just wonderful, you will have to show me how to do this someday, what a great technique. Sorry I won't get to see you today but we will catch up at the next Stamp Camp :) Have a good day

Wow June, that is an adorable butterfly tee! Love what you did for the napkin----gonna have to go check out the tutorial! Looks really cool.
What a great use for of all things - a napkin!
Wow June, I love what you did here! What a great idea. More and more you are making me want to go out and buy a Circuit (and before I retired I worked for one of the largest craft importers in the world and could have gotten one at a great price... oh well!)
Have a Happy Day!
