wedding ring pillow Click image to enlarge Designer: Lisa Falduto This set of Fiskars Harlequin stamps has so many uses! You can create unique argyle type patterns, masculine items, and wonderfully rich feminine projects. I decided to create a vintage ring bearers pillow for a wedding. The large background stamp is perfect to add interest to the fabric by using coordinating acrylic paint. Add a little old fashioned lace, a doily, button, and ribbon and you have a beautiful pillow ready for your wedding. So many unique pieces in this stamp set, and the round flourish stamp is the perfect way to personalize your pillow by simply inserting your names in the center! Difficulty rating
Instructions (Print version)  1. Cut 2 pieces of muslin that measure 9"x9" using your Fiskars Comfort Grip Rotary Cutter, Fiskars Ruler, and Fiskars Cutting mat. 2. Using your Fiskars Compact Stamp press, Fiskars Harlequin background stamp, and small sponge, dab tan acrylic paint on the background stamp and place the design on one side of the muslin. Flip your muslin and create the same image on the opposite side but diagonally from the first stamped image. Allow paint to dry and then heat set using an iron and press cloth. 4. Turn your pillow right side out, straightening ruffle as you go. Stuff pillow with cotton batting until it is the firmness you desire. Hand stitch opening closed using a needle and tan thread. 5. Place the doily in the center of the pillow. Stitch the large decorative button through the center of the doily so the button recedes down into the pillow and secure with your needle and thread in the back. 7. Create a tag for your pillow using the round flourish stamp in the Fiskars Harlequin stamp set on to Kimberly Poloson Blooming Love Flourish patterned cardstock using brown ink and your Fiskars Stamp Block Set. Trim around the outside edge of your stamped image using your Fiskars No. 5 Micro-tip scissors leaving a slight edge. Ink around the outside edge of this piece and then write the name of the bride and groom inside the Flourished Circle area. Punch a hole using Fiskars 1/4" circle punch along the upper edge and attach this to the ribbon completing the knot loosely. 8. Attach the 5" piece of elastic to the back of the pillow has a handle using your needle and thread.
