Having watched a couple of people today at the Stamperama show I have found that the fool proof method is to keep moving the heat source and trun it over and over ....perfect

Although I managed to smudge it at the very end....so maybe I should have stamped it wth something else.

Linda said she used ranger archival - but maybe I should have left it for a few minutes after

I do love playing with shrink plastic! I got hooked when I watched it being demonstrated at the NEC ages ago.

I found the trick was using it on a baking tray covered with a layer of Teflon film on the top. I got quite carried away and was amazed at the effects you could create using all sorts of stuff - beads, glitter etc. My most successful project was when I pressed some vintage lace and small Mother of pearl buttons into it......... ooh, I feel the urge to get 'shrinking' as I type!!
