Playing around with felt
I never thought I would be able to use felt in such a cute way! I am loving seeing what everyone is doing with it! It inspired me to run it through my Sizzix with the Cuttlebug Asteriks die. I did find out though that not all felt will work with the cuttlebug dies. This felt was pretty thin and somewhat stiff. It did work great though! I like the red flowers but wish I had another color on hand to work with. I'll pick some more colors up when I am out next.
- Happy Everything (SU), Flourishes (Rhonna Farrer) stamp sets
- Aloe Vera Versamagic chalk ink, Real Red classic ink
- Cuttlebug Asteriks die
- red felt
- rhinestones
Now this card came out of absolutely nowhere. I threw it together in about 10 minutes. I like how it turned out though. Nothing too bold. I thought about using ribbon where the paper piercing is but thought that might make it over done. I did pop another dress up on top of the one underneath that I had already colored.
- Diva Dresses (TAC), Paper Tray (PaperTrey) stamp sets
- Regal Rose re-inker
- Black Stazon ink
- push pin, rhinestones, pop dots
Allison tagged me to tell 7 things about myself and then tag 7 people to do the same. So, here goes.
*I have never smoked a cigarette even though both of my parents were smokers (I think that's why!).
*When I get scared while watching a movie I wiggle my toes.
*If I ever came into some money, the first thing I would do is get my teeth fixed. They have never been straight.
*I am a cat person and grew up with all kinds of animals as a kid. However within the last 3 years have developed allergies to pet dander and pretty much sneeze my head off any time I get near any. That includes our Guinea Pig Franklin.
*I belch quite often. And usually quite loudly! But don't worry, I always say excuse me!
*I love to fish! Hubby is teaching me the in and outs of bass fishing though and hopefully we get to plan a day to go together.
*Lately my absolute favorite indulgence is Ferro Rocher chocolates!!! Good gracious they are yummy!
Alright, now I will tag the following....

I love the card with the dresses along the bottom. I agree ribbon would have been too much, I like the paper piercing!
Ah, you're killing me again with the gorgeous aloe vera ink! Love the contrast between the warm felt and the icy rhinestones!

Beautiful card. I have been reading your blog for sometime now and just noticed that you live in Troy. I am in Toledo. I am originally from Seattle, but my husband grew up in Troy. Small world.
