Going for the burn
Carrying on the "Slash and Burn" theme for the Arts in the Mail challenge I decided to layer up some fabrics and heat them up with a heat tool. Layer of red silk, yellow/orange lame, pieces of gold and multicolour netting with some crinkly organza, topped with organza. The first pic shows the stiching and burning back having added sequins afterwards. The second pic shows the card trimmed back and torn organza zig-zagged on around the edge. I've quite enjoyed distressing the fabrics this way.
