How is your week going? Anything crafty going on? Me not too much. I have been able to get a bit in but nothing too big. Hopefully this Friday at my crop and then on the weekend! fingers crossed!
My card today features the Jillibean Soup Dutch mustard line. I spritzed the paper with my Mister Huey Pumpkin spice and then arranged the card. Now my fun thing on this card was the new 100% Wool Felt that I ordered from Paper Trey Ink. I am totally addicted to the felt! It is so beautiful, thick, and the colors are to die for--well back on track now-anyway Jillibean makes the cutest embellishments using felt; however, they are a tad expensive because you only get like 4 in a package. I am VERY frugal with my scrapping funds and it is just a bit high for me. So I got to thinking that I could create my own with my Paper Trey Ink dies. I was a bit worried because the felt is so thick. Well as you can see it worked out! I love them!!! I layered the flowers and added a button in the center. I am in love with my homemade embellishments!
Supplies
paper- jillibean soup
cardstock-bazzill
sentiment- jillibean soup
felt, buttons, twine- paper trey ink
Here is a closer look at the flowers I made. I made three sets. The largest flower is apporximately 2 inches and the smaller is approximately 1.5 inches.
I have put these three sets of felt layered flower embellishments in my Etsy shop. I have them priced WELL below what you can buy them for in the scrap store. If you are interested please email me. There is also a link to my etsy shop on the right side of my blog.
I hope everyone has a great day today. I will be back on Friday with a new project. Thanks so much for stopping by!

This card is so adorable, Mary Pat ~ and those felt flowers are awesome!! Well done!! =)
Wow, you did an awesome job with it! And the flowers are great! Sorry to ask, it may be a stupid question but did you run the felt through a machine or does felt work with a punch?
Love your hand made flowers, good luck on Etsy! :)

The card came out perfect! I love that you were able to make your own flowers! SO cool! Thanks for sharing! -Amanda
Super cute! I've got to give that a try!
I love the felt! I see why Becky was inspired to try it! I used felt once, years ago, to make a banner with my dies, and totally forgot until just now! I should try this again! I'm thinking some holiday decorations are in order!
LOVE those felt flowers. Just beautiful and love the color combos on them all.
Beautiful!
