I recently participated in a Big Shot Fabric Swap on Stampin' Addicts. I received mine today and they are amazing! I'm so impressed by the creativity. I created 2 projects - the first being a luggage tag made with the Stampin' Up! exclusive Top Note Die.
I was thrilled to find vinyl colors in (close to) Stampin' Up colors. I used Ballet Blue, Crushed Curry and White. You can see the front and back of the tag in the picture. The back has a transparency pocket for your information. The front is embellished with the Daisies die in White and Crushed Curry, with a Chocolate Chip Corduroy button center. Chocolate Chip grosgrain ribbon for the tie is looped through an Antique Brass Jumbo Eyelet.
I had no problems at all with die cutting the vinyl. The dies easily cut them. I did however, have some issues trying to sew it. The blue didn't take kindly to me trying to stitch around the Top Note shape. The fabric really pulled too much at me pulling and twisting around the curves. I ended up doing a simple straight stitch just inside the curves.
Supplies: Sizzix Big Shot, Top Note Die, Daisies Die, Antique Brass Jumbo Eyelets, 5/8" Chocolate Grosgrain Ribbon, CropADile, transparency, sewing machine, vinyl fabric.
