Hi Lovelies,
I'm back again to let you all know about this challenge & to share some more inspiration with you.
Now you are probably wondering what a Mug Rug has to do with Die Cut Divas. Believe it or not, but I was inspired to make a Mug Rug for my dd's teacher. I used a Scalloped Nestibility to cut out the tree foliage. Firstly I ironed some fusible webbing to the backside of the material before running it through my Cuttlebug. The fusible webbing gives the material some stiffness which helps with the cutting. I used my sewing machine to zig zag around all the appliqué pieces.
Here I have made a tag explaining what a Mug Rug is. I used the same X-cut Ornate frame die in two different sizes to make this. I turned the bottom card 90 degrees so it was on point. I printed the tag onto lightweight card before running it through my Cuttlebug. I also punched out a small circle & glued it down before punching a smaller hole out so the ribbon could be threaded through.
How cool is that? I hope that I have inspired you to see what you can do using this picture.
Thanks for stopping by
