- How to Use Fusible Web - Mixed Media Techniques, Episode 031 of Mixed Media Soul Sparks
This week I share some mixed media techniques using fusible web. You can iron and fuse the pieces together. This is the only kind of ironing that I do!
I will share tips that range from thick and thin painting, stamps, stencils, rubbings and embedding.

Really stunning work, so interesting. I also love your style of presenting, so welcoming x
I've loved your art for years and now I am enjoying your great videos. I'm so happy to learn that The iron and board I bought 5 years ago and are still in their boxes now may have a useful life.
Hi Aletta-so great to hear from you and thank you! I know my clothes iron doesn't see much action like the studio iron.
I’m so happy today because I found you. These ideas are fabulous. I will be exploring your classes. I feel I need more expressions of texture, color and creativity in my life and this feels right to me. 🌱💛 I’m liking the idea of giving my iron new purpose.
Oh definitely a new direction for the iron 😄. Enjoy and thank you for watching.
Oh, and thank you for not playing music in the background!

You are fun as an instructor and i will enjoy trying some of the techniques you share. Thank you and keep creating your beautiful work!
Thank you 😊
With a careful use of a heat gun, the fusible web will "break" and form odd and unanticipated shapes in the painted fusible web. Sometimes the heat will fuse the web to your project and other times an iron will do a full fuse. Just another idea.
Thank you Ruth. I also like to fuse several pieces together with the heat gun and putting them in an embroidery hoop before fusing creates innovative patterns. I love this stuff.

Oh, I love this technique! Thanks for sharing it. Do you think watercolor would work well on the fusible web?
It might. Give it a go.
How did you get the bubbles on the turquoise semicircular piece of wonderful under. I enjoy all your tutorials
Go to 13 minutes on the video and I show how I got the pattern using molding paste through a stencil. Thanks for watching.
Can you use mica powders on the webbing.... I need to experiment ... you inspire me ‼️♥️
Hi Sandra, thanks so much for sharing. Do the surfaces where you’ve ironed on some painted web get sticky? Can the glue be reactivated once it’s set? I’m thinking about in hot weather and if you have it in a sketchbook etc.
I usually adhere the web with acrylic medium because ironing it doesn't hold it great. Once put on, you can't remove it.
Are the paints mixed with a medium or straight out of the bottle?
Hello, love what you create. Could you tell me which number of pellon fusible you used? is it really the number 805?
It is the heavy pellon Wonder Under. I am not sure of a number.
🌱💛
Thanks for watching.
Hi. I wanted to ask a question about the molding paste sample. At the beginning of that sequence, you said to work on the paper side, was that just a mistake? I noticed when you pulled apart the molding paste sample you did during the video, it looked like you were working on the fusible side. It was difficult to see the result but the paste looked very thin, thinner than the blue sample you had prepared earlier. So many questions! I hope you are still monitoring your UA-cam site. Thanks
You caught that. I thought I had corrected myself later in the video but you are correct to apply the paste to the web side. Let me know if you have more questions. Thanks for watching.
This is a cool way to use wonder under....can the painted web be ironed onto fabric? I'm guessing yes, but wonder how durable it would be?
Yes it can be ironed onto fabric. It would be fine as an art piece but not so much for a wearable work. Thanks for watching.
@@SandraDuranWilson Thank you!!
Can you use the Pell on in a printer?
You can use an ink jet, not a laser. Pump up the saturation because a lot of ink ends up on the carrier paper.
Did you use the light or heavyDid you use the light or heavy web?
I used the heavy, but not the one for denim.
Can this be ironed onto fabric?
Yes, that is what it is designed for, but the paint may prevent it from adhering. I suggest using a second piece of fusible web without paint to adhere it. This will cut down on the transparency tho. All tradeoffs.
Sandra I was trying to fine your website Awaking your creative soul but it cannot be found
Here you go.

fab demo thank you but i'm struggling to understand the use of the fusible web here. You stamp a print onto the web, then fuse the web to a backing.
why not just stamp directly onto the substrate you are using?
any feedback would be greatly appreciated!!
You are creating another layer. The main reason would be to apply this over a textured surface, one that would be difficult to stamp on.
@@SandraDuranWilson Thank you for clearing that up for me. Much appreciated!
Also you can fuse the fabric onto surfaces like metal or paper. You may not want to alter the surface of a delicate paper with glue or gel. You got my brain going. I put a lot of these answers in my 6 books too.
What shade of white did you use
From the video it looks like Holbein fluid titanium white.
What type of paper did you use to get that skin
I used many different types of paper throughout the video. The thinner papers like rice papers or tissue will give you the thinnest skins. Open weave and thicker papers create a unique type of skin. Can you tell me at what timeframe in the video you are referring to?
