Embossing Velvet

Tonight's craft is embossing velvet. While sorting through some old Martha Stewart Christmas magazines to discard at the library, I came across an article detailing how to emboss velvet leaves to use for making Christmas wreaths and runners. Of course velvet leaves have about a trillion year-long uses in a Domythic home too.


But beyond creating leaves, you can emboss velvet and use it for pillow covers, curtains, blankets...any and all fabrics needed around the home.

A botanical rubber stamp set available on Etsy would work great for this. The seller has other stamps that would work great too.
