Felt Addiction…

Nov 21, 2008

This is what I seem to have at the moment. I love felt. I cre­ated this card using my friend Wendy’s Stu­dio 490 Art of Mak­ing it Merry stamp set. I just inked the stamps, stamped the image onto some cream felt, then used that as my embroi­dery pat­tern for the flour­ishes. Then I stamped the flower image three times onto some red felt, cut them out, lay­ered them, put some french knots in the cen­ter and accented the edges using Plat­inum Stick­les. I think this came out pretty cute. Adding the Plat­inum Stick­les gives it the cheesy vin­tage look which I love so much right now too.

So dig out those stamp sets you have stashed away and see what great embroi­dery pat­terns you have just wait­ing to be used. If you want to learn some embroi­dery stitches this is the blog I found online that helped teach me… she has great tutorials.
