- Fairfield Oly Fun Multipurpose Craft Material
- Foamology 2-Piece Design Foam Tile, 12 by 12 by 0.5-Inch, Rigid
- Silhouette Cameo
- Mod Podge 8-Ounce Glue, Fabric
Step one: I am using a download that I purchased for my Silhouette cutting machine. With the Silhouette, I use a fabric blade and the slowest fabric settings to cut my Oly*Fun.
Step two: I hand cut tiny leaves to add color to my image.
Step three: Die cut other embellishments, like the flowers.
(Note: You could use just an electronic cutter or dies to make the whole project. I used both for this example so you could see how versatile the fabric is and how well it cuts with both the machine and the dies.)
Step four: Cover a Foamology board with Oly*Fun fabric.
Step five: Use Mod Podge to adhere the pieces to the board. Seal with another layer of Mod Podge and let it dry.
Isn’t is gorgeous? I love the vibrant colors that Oly*Fun fabric is available in. This makes it so easy to make wall art in any size to complement the colors and patterns in your home. Ready for more fun Silhouette crafting ideas? Check these projects out:
