We've got a new challenge for you at Seize The Birthday, and this time it's FELT.
Felt is just made for die cutting! I got some gorgeous marled felt in several colours the other week, so this was a perfect opportunity to use some of it. I cut the giraffe (Dee's Artsy Impressions) from the pink marled felt and laid it on a gelli plate background from my stash. I grounded the giraffe with a strip of patterned paper from my stash (yes, I save strips of paper for just such occasions) and stamped the sentiment under that in Brilliance. I also stamped a butterfly from Winged Things above the giraffe's head.
Pop on over to the Seize The Birthday blog for some more fabulous inspiration from the Design Team, and play along with us. If you don't want to use felt, you can still play along with any birthday project.
This is so cute! Perfect way to use the felt.
ReplyDeleteToo adorable using the felt!
ReplyDeleteAn amazing corral of all those media - great card! I love how you've left the die cut as is, without trying to define it - the giraffe looks gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteJust so sweet...love your felt giraffe!
ReplyDeleteThe simpler the better. Great idea to just leave the giraffe plain and use scraps to added texture and color.
ReplyDeleteLove that let Giraffe Shirley! He is super cute and it's only a silhouette! Great card!
ReplyDeleteGreat giraffe, Shirley! What a perfect image for die cutting, and the felt you used is beautiful . I laughed that you squirrel away little scraps of patterned paper like I do, too!
ReplyDeleteYour little giraffe is darling! Felt-fantastic!
