Fresh Ideas for Hostess and Customer Monthly Incentives—March

“Live what you love,” what a great, inspiring message that many of us need reminding of on a daily basis. This project is a combination of color, patterns, fabric, ribbons, and thinking outside of the box. For example, turn around the MDF board so the beveled edges are on the backside. Paint a layer of vinyl effects over the fabric so the vinyl expression will stick.

Tips & Tricks: Flocked Paper
When working with flocked paper, use paper that is only partially flocked and has plenty of space for the expression to adhere to. Be sure to test a small area with a piece of the transfer tape or clear tape to make sure it won’t pull off the all the flocking. Work slowly when applying the expression and use your transfer tool to help you pull the expression away from the transfer tape if needed.
