Printing on Linen Tutorial & Free Fall Printables

Hi Friends!
I have another project that I am excited to share!!!
In case you hadn't realized, 
I am crazy for linen:).
The texture,
the natural tones and the depth,
really, what is not to love....
 
I try to find different way of incorporating
this love of mine into my seasonal decorating.
My last post was, 
 DIY Linen Driftwood Pumpkins,
which you can find, here.
And this post.....
more linen.
A tutorial on how to print on fabric(linen)
&
from Kara's Party Ideas to download.
 
FYI, you can use any fabric, even burlap
&/or
you can just print these beautiful festive signs
on cardstock or any kind of paper.
 
Thankful Sign click here.
Halloween Sign click here

 
You will need-
2 sheets of cardstock (8.5 x 11)
2 pieces of fabric(linen) that measure slightly larger than the paper
Tacky Spray
 Spray paper evenly, light to medium coat.
Make sure you are in a well ventilated area.
 Lay fabric over & press firmly.
Flip over & cut the excess fabric off.

 Send through the printer like you would paper.
 Ta-Da
 
 I love the texture!!!

 
 


Happy decorating
& have a fantastic weekend:)
