Neenah EPC Film Blog Hop Week 2

I am so excited to announce week 2 of the Neenah EPC Film blog hop.  Last week Melony Bradley created the cutest t-shirts with the Neenah EPC Film and Sizzix Dies; you can check them out here if you missed seeing them.  

Since it is already fall and actually cooling down here in MN I thought I would create a fall centerpiece that would take me right into Thanksgiving and remind me of things that I am Thankful for everyday!



Here's how I did it:


Although this is hard to see; I used my Cricut Expressions to create my words for things I am Thankful for in my life; then I reversed them before cutting....which is very important with words....

I peeled away the excess so just the words were left; which I then cut apart.

I placed the words face down onto silk leaves I peeled off their stem. 

I used my iron on a the highest setting for only about 15 - 20 seconds; then I let them cool down completely.


I peeled the backing away and had dozens of leaves with things to be Thankful for written on them.


I placed the leaves onto a rectangular plate....

and placed some candle holders on top....

Now it is ready to put out and enjoy.  I can also move the leaves around every few days so that all the things I am Thankful will be seen.


You can create and personalize a variety of items with Neenah EPC Film which is so Quick and Easy and you get great results!  I have used it on Lace, Felt, Wood, Paper and  Ribbon to name a few and had great results with all of them.....

Neenah EPC Film comes in 5 colors: Red, Black, White, Green and Blue.  If you are unable to find it at your locale craft store it is available on Amazon.com.

I am honored to be in the company of such talented designers as: Melony Bradley, Eileen Hull, Jonathan Fong and Debra Quartermain! The Blog Hop is going to have a new project every Thursday thru October 18.  So please check out the schedule below so you can hop along with us and see some wonderful designs with this great product!
