What sort of Hot Air tool have you got, I have seen a mini hot air blower on EBay for £14.99, I am thinking of getting one.. Sallyx |

These are fantastic Catherine, I've been trying to use a hairdryer, but it's very difficult to control! You've obviously got great control with these! Another item to go on my wish list! Sylvia

Great work, Catherine I love the dog rose especially ![]() Sally, £14.99 is pretty standard everywhere for a hot air gun Most craft shops have them at that price, and you can sometimes get them for a bit less

There's a hotair gun in the Webb Ivory Christmas catalogue for about a tenner. (You can tell it's the start of summer when xmas catalogues start to arrive! )I love the dog rose best. The purity of the yellow is just wonderful! There are so many flowers out in our garden now I might even get inspired to do a few myself if I get some time! Maria x |

thanks everyone! terry, these are about A6, to go on cards, and I used a hairdryer on these, I have a heat tool but find I tend to burn the card if Im not carefull, my hairdryer has two speeds and 3 tempretures so its good to using. looking forward to having another go later, looking forward to seeing all the other hot air blown flowers blooming later! xx
