3D Fabric Medium Sample – Bark Delight

A raised texture was created on brown parcel paper by screen printing with  3D Fabric Medium. The “cured” textured surface was flooded with Red, Blue and Yellow Drawing Inks.

  

Screen Printing:

Make a simple screen using curtain voile – NOT net as the holes are too large and our squeegee is a window squeegee; yes the ones for cleaning your windows.

  1. Use masking tape* or sticky-back plastic* to create a design on your screen.
    *Make sure it adheres firmly to the voile.
  2. Crumple up a sheet of brown parcel paper.
  3. Open out, but do not smooth out the creases.
  4. Lay the screen on the paper – design side facing down on the paper.
  5. Use a spoon to place 3D Fabric Medium across the top of the screen.
  6. Using a firm grip pull the 3D Fabric Medium with a squeegee down the surface of the screen.
  7. Heat cure using a craft tool – wattage range 300w - 360w.
  8. Allow small drops of Red, Blue & Yellow Colourcraft Inks to mix on the surface.
