Shrink Shrank Shrunk

When I went to my local craft store the other day , one of the ladies there asked me if I had ever tried shrink plastic . No , I had not . Did I want to ? Well , yes of course! This resulted in a whole bunch of bunny rabbits (and some flowers ). The white bunnies ended up on my spring wreath , and I am sure I will be able to find a purpose for the black bunnies too!

How it works:
Draw whatever you want on the shrink plastic. The shrink plastic I used had one shiny and one matte side and I used the matte side to draw on. I used ProMarker pens, but you can use pretty much any pens you like.

Cut out your drawing.

Heat the image with an embossing heat tool. The image will shrink and wrinkle and look generally awkward. Keep heating and the image will straighten itself out as the same time as it becomes much smaller and thicker. (The plastic can also be heated in the oven, see wrapping for instructions). Put some pressure on straight away, for example a heavy book. Done!
