Michael Miller Fabric papers are amazing and so much easier to use than regular fabrics. Normally, regular fabric is so limp and wrinkles so easily that it makes using fabric in your projects very frustrating and not nearly as fun as what it could be. Michael Millers fabric "paper" is specifically designed to be used in your scrapbooks, cards & other paper crafts. They have added a special finish to the fabrics which stiffens the fabric and gives it the ability to act just like paper!! It comes in single sheets or coordinating packages in many many colors, patterns and themes.
Suitable for virtually any project you're working on this fabric paper can be cut with scissors or trimmer, torn & distressed like in this card you can run it thru your printer, you can sew it , die-cut it, use rub-ons and acrylic paints on it, use it with glossy accents, and on and on. Anything you can do to regular paper you can do to this fabric. You are only limited by your imagination. The best part is, it's already stiff ~ no messing with trying to attach flimsy material to a backing paper like when you try to use regular fabrics
. Another amazing thing you can do with this fabric is when heat is applied to it you can form it. Here is a flower from one of the projects I worked on that I simply heated & shaped. It's very easy to work with. All you have to do is shoot the fabric with your embossing/heat gun for a few seconds (you will notice it goes limp) then form it into whatever shape you like. For the flower petals, I folded them into the center, heated them up then let go...they "opened" like a regular flower then as it was cooling I rolled the edge of each petal under for an extra bit of dimension. To make the curly-q's I simply heated then wound the fabric around a paintbrush handle & held it there till it was cool, or for a looser curl, you can pull it along scissors just as you would curly ribbon. Simple as that!

This fabric can be used just like any other pattern paper, and comes in great coordinating & popular color combinations. By using this fabric paper, you can add so much to your lay-out with the textures & feel of the fabric, it's amazing how it makes your photos just jump off the page.
This fabric paper is not only great for scrapbooks but many other paper crafts as well....from creating cards, to jazzing up die-cuts to making cute little "purse" cards! I took the purse idea one step further by turning one into a mini book! By simply punching a couple holes in the bottom of the purse, inserting a couple Junnkitz Ringz and adding some pages I made a neat little book that can be used for notes, signatures, mini photo album, etc.
By far though above all the patterns and colors their new tweed line is my favorite!! This fabric is amazing! The texture and color it adds to a lo is just amazing. It's such a touch of class that you don't need alot of embellishing to make a stunning lay-out.

All in all, Michael Miller Fabric Papers are a wonderful way to add texture and interest to everything you're working on. It makes working with fabrics a pleasure instead of a pain!!
