Felted flowers

As part of Papertrey's Febrauary countdown, Nichole Heady set a challenge yesterday to create some floral embellishments and use them to make a card. Having re-discovered my felt collection recently, I decided to make some felt flowers using two colours that quite closely match my two favourite PTI colours - Aqua Mist and Raspberry Fizz:



Recipe:

Stamps - Vintage Picnic (sentiment)(PTI)
Card - Stamper's Select White/Aqua Mist/Raspberry Fizz (PTI)
Paper - Bitty Dots (Aqua Mist)
Buttons - Raspberry Fizz (PTI)
Other - felt/Cuttlebug flower dies/Cuttlebug/Spellbinders tag dies

I cut the flowers with my Cuttlebug flower dies, and sewed them together with a Raspberry Fizz button in the centre. Here are the rest of them, stuck on an acetate sheet all ready to use on more projects!



More 'felty' projects coming your way soon lol!

Have a fantastic Sunday and thanks for visiting!

Felt inspiration

Aah, don't you just love Saturday mornings!! This is the first weekend this year I've been at home and it just feels like such a luxury to have a whole weekend stretched ahead of me - now I just need to fill it productively!!

In spite of a very busy week I did manage a bit of crafting a few days ago - I've been SO excited about Papertrey Ink's big countdown as part of their 3rd Anniversary. So many exciting new products!

I'm particularly excited about the felt - so in anticipation of getting my mitts on some PTI felt (Aqua Mist felt... ooh, my heart's all a flutter!!), I reached for my felt collection and used my heart nestabilities to create an embellishment for a card based on this Card Positioning System's current sketch challenge:



Mmmm, don't you just LOVE those Jenni Bowlin mini papers!! I bought them about a year ago and have finally made myself cut into them.... doing my best to break my hoarding tendency!!

Recipe:

Card - Stamper's Select White/Dark Chocolate (PTI)
Paper - Jenni Bowlin
Other - Felt/heart Nestabilities/Dark Chocolate ribbon and button (PTI)

I hope you have a fun and productive weekend!!
