So we got together and stamped on VELVET!!
Stamping on VELVET is so easy.....finding VELVETEEN paper locally is not easy!! About 2 years ago I bought velveteen paper from Hobby Lobby. But Hobby Lobby does not stock it anymore here where I live. Niether does Micheal's, Joanne's, Walmart, or my local scrapbook store. UGH!!
But, you can buy Velveteen online. Velveteen paper is a velvet covered piece of paper. Sometimes it's called Suede paper. You can check out the links to some online resources at my tutorial link at the bottom of this post.
Good News is! That you can also stamp on Velvet Fabric itself. I have not tried this but have read it is true. It's recommended that you use an acetate/rayon blend of velvet cloth for the best outcome when stamping on velvet fabric. I did search locally and had a hard time finding this blend of velvet.
