00:00:01,070 --> 00:00:03,077
- The supplies we need for this project

2
00:00:03,077 --> 00:00:06,494
are a computer, a Cricut Explore machine.

3
00:00:07,445 --> 00:00:09,806
We also want a cutting mat

4
00:00:09,806 --> 00:00:11,980
and I'm using a purple cutting mat,

5
00:00:11,980 --> 00:00:13,524
which is the StrongGrip,

6
00:00:13,524 --> 00:00:17,037
and I'm also using a LightGrip blue cutting mat.

7
00:00:17,037 --> 00:00:21,204
we're gonna need a sharpie, a set of string lights.

8
00:00:21,414 --> 00:00:23,757
I think it's good to not do anything too long.

9
00:00:23,757 --> 00:00:26,868
Mine is about 13 feet long, but you could go shorter.

10
00:00:26,868 --> 00:00:29,747
But I wouldn't go too much longer than that.

11
00:00:29,747 --> 00:00:33,338
Each flower is made up of three different materials.

12
00:00:33,338 --> 00:00:35,040
We're gonna be using card stock

13
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,608
for the large part of the flower,

14
00:00:37,608 --> 00:00:40,356
and you can use any color that you choose.

15
00:00:40,356 --> 00:00:43,386
We're also gonna use this interesting paper fabric,

16
00:00:43,386 --> 00:00:45,283
which is called craftex.

17
00:00:45,283 --> 00:00:47,950
Kind of part fabric, part paper.

18
00:00:48,564 --> 00:00:51,183
It's really interesting, it has a great texture.

19
00:00:51,183 --> 00:00:54,256
We're also going to be working with wool felt.

20
00:00:54,256 --> 00:00:55,705
You can use all different colors

21
00:00:55,705 --> 00:00:58,372
and you'll probably need quite a few scraps,

22
00:00:58,372 --> 00:01:01,342
depending on how many flowers you're gonna be making.

23
00:01:01,342 --> 00:01:03,629
We'll also be using heat and bond.

24
00:01:03,629 --> 00:01:06,752
You'll need as much heat and bond as you need felt.

25
00:01:06,752 --> 00:01:09,546
And the heat and bond is a fusible web

26
00:01:09,546 --> 00:01:12,879
and you iron the rough side to your felt

27
00:01:13,037 --> 00:01:15,004
and it gives a good paper backing,

28
00:01:15,004 --> 00:01:18,214
which is a good stabilizer when it's in the cutting machine.

29
00:01:18,214 --> 00:01:21,201
We're also going to be using a leather punch,

30
00:01:21,201 --> 00:01:22,784
a pair of scissors.

31
00:01:23,189 --> 00:01:27,356
We'll need an iron and of course we'll need a hot glue gun.
