I loved the way the orange and red mylar looked in the designs. I have also made greeting cards using the mylar patterns. Are really cute.
I took a Mylar class at All brands Sew & Vac - I really liked it we made book marks. You can order mylar, or
like someone said buy at dollar store, or as my teacher said she used mylar ballons, i just bought 3 to try out.
Ballons without air, seems ok. 3 colors $3.00. Now i just need time to try it out, that is really hard to come by
lately.
