Ink Jet Shrink Plastic!

I have found a new LOVE! Ink Jet Shrink Plastic by Darcie's LLC.  This stuff is SO fun to play with.  You can print out your Digis, stamp your regular stamps or even just cut out die cuts.  There is no need to mess with your oven because you shrink it with your EMBOSSING GUN!  Here's a couple pics of a project I did with this stuff.
 
 You want to use light colors because it will get darker as the paper shrinks.  I cut these out with Spellbinders once colored.  The image started out at 3 1/2 inches long.  Then once it shrunk it was just over 1 1/4 inches long.  The piece is thicker and makes for a great key chain ornament or embellishment.

The Digi I used for this project is Rachel by Simply Betty Stamps.  I am working on taking better pictures.  Once the snow has melted I can go back to taking them outside in the natural light.  Those turn out much better.  Thanks for stopping by.
BIG HUGS, Mel
