Isn't this little felt flower the cutest?! I just love making these happy little things!
Recently the Memory Box Fringe Border Die came to live at my house. ;) Altho it is a low-profile die, it works beautifully with these *GAAAAW-JUS* rayon/wool blend felts Ellen just brought into the store. LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff!!!
The leaf from the Twigs & Berries Die Set is also the perfect size for these particular little blossoms.
After die-cutting the felt, I ran a strip of Be Creative Tape along the uncut edge.
After removing the liner paper, rolled the flower tightly over the tape. Tip: It really helps to use a toothpick, laying just the tip down against the tape starting at one end and rolling it quickly. When you're finished rolling, you can usually slip the toothpick out--just take care not to undo the flower in the process.
I also die cut some leaves and made myself a little stash of felt flower embellishments that will be ready in a pinch for a future project! I had so much fun, I could have made gobs of 'em all evening long!
Just pop a glue dot on the back side to mount them to your card and my, oh my, they sure do finish off a card so sweetly! *monkey clapping*
Thanks for stopping by today! If you make any of these I'd love to see them and hope you'll come hook me up with a link!
