Today's card will be entered into the following Challenges; MFT Sketch, MFT Color and Simon Says Monday, Felt That!
I used the MFT die sets; Blueprints 12 and Open Simply Scallops as well as the Simply Fabulous Sayings stamp set. The 'polaroid frame' is a PTI die, Fabulous Frames, there seems to be a fabulous theme emerging. :) Spellbinders Standard Circles die.
The flower dies from Blueprints 12 cut the felt beautifully. I am quite amazed that they look this good, like wicked good. Swiss Dots Embossing Folder and Enamel Dots for accents. Melon Mambo ink.
I had forgotten I had this handy dandy little tool by EK Success, a Piercing Bug. It worked perfectly to add the dotted texture from the top of the Sketch. It was one of those impulse buys years ago, you know the kind, when you're standing in the store with a 50% off coupon in hand?
Thanks so much for coming by....I think my feelings on felt may be changing....hmmm, who knew?
Enjoy~~
Geez, I have that tool too, and haven't used it in years. Thanks for the reminder...I need to pull it out. I LOVE this card. It's so cheerful with all the bright colors, and that plaid is perfect. Your little felt flowers are just awesome..you have inspired me!!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this card!! The plaid background is perfect for the bright, bold and fun colors. I like the felt flowers. I also have that tool...somewhere
ReplyDeleteI have that piercing bug as well! I used to use it a lot but haven't in years... The colors of your card are so joyful and I love all the felt you used. A sweet, sweet card, Donna!
ReplyDeleteHahaha! OK, first I love your fabulous card with the bright colors and the felt flowers. Nicely done and love the design. I like that you combined a lot of products from other companies and they work together very well. I am laughing, as I have the tool too and do not use it. Forgot about it. Thanks for the reminder that it does something besides take up space and get dusty.
ReplyDeleteI still have mine, although I haven't used it recently, but I will again soon. Thanks for the reminder.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card and lovely felt flowers. I don't have any felt at all and I have vowed not to spend much money for awhile. I have too much already. And, I have a Tonic tool similar to that one. I have never used it though. LOL
ReplyDeleteYou rocked theses challenges AGAIN!!! Great take on the sketch and the felt flowers are fabulous. I think I must have that piercing bug.

ReplyDeleteI have been thinking about trying felt on my cards and have been reluctant until now! I love the look! Thanks my friend for showing me how nice it can look!
ReplyDeleteDonna, what a beautiful card, and I LOVE the felt flowers! I've been seeing more felt and even saw some sewn hearts recently. Beautifully done, and another friend uses her Piercing Bug. Love how it worked! Hugs, sweet friend!
