Mother's Day card with PTI felt

I have been wanting to play around with my PTI felt some more so I thought I would use it to make a flower this time. I used a Sizzix die to cut the circles, used some hot glue to hold it together, added glitter and now I have a BIG flower. It kinda turned out larger than I anticipated. LOL! In retrospect I wish I had put the glitter on the edges of each "petal" rather in the middle but oh well.....Mom will like it anyway!

I also used Distressed Stripes from PTI to make the plaid paper, added a glittery Raspberry Fizz button and a sentiment from Delightful Dahlia.

Thanks for looking!

PTI felt and button embellishments

Last week I saw this post by Kristen on the PTI message board. I thought these embellies were darling and wanted to try my hand at them. I cut the NEW PTI black felt with my Big Kick and an old Sizzix die into circles, found some PTI buttons, raided my floss stash for some matching colors and did these while watching tv one night. It was so fun and easy! I added a blanket stitch to the edges.....haven't done THAT stitch in a looong time. It took me a while to get used to it again. I am pretty happy with the way they turned out...

Thanks for looking....and thanks Kristen for the link!
