    Shrink plastic is one of the most fun ways to embellish a card! You simply shape and colour your plastic and then heat it, either by using a heat gun or popping it into the oven. Then, as if by magic, it shrinks seven times smaller and seven times thicker than its original size, the colours intensify and you have a brilliant embellishment ready to use! Debi Potter has created some fab flower designs that show just how versatile shrink plastic can be - you really can make embellishments to dress up every card!

    This is a pdf article, first published in Papercraft inspirations. It includes a step-by-step guide for how to make your own shrink plastic flower card. All shopping lists and supplies suggestions in this pdf were correct at the time of publication, but you may need to improvise & shop around for supplies if items are no longer in the shops.
