Today I have a quick little tutorial to share with you for making faux fabric ruffles.
Step One: Cut card
stock with a border die of your choice. I used the Anastasia Border B136.
Step Two: Spritz
water on the front and back of your paper and let it soak in for a minute.
Step Three: Pinch and
gather your paper along the top, letting the bottom ruffle out. You could use tweezers or a piercer, but I
find it’s just as easy with my fingers.
Step Four: Slightly
pull out to the desired look and let the paper dry completely. If you want to speed up the drying time you
can use a heat gun.
Here is an example of
the ruffle applied to a project. Check
back Friday for the finished project and to see how I used the faux fabric
ribbon.
Hugs, Lori
Such a quick and easy way to change the border die cut into a faux lacy piece! Love this tutorial, Lori!
