My heart goes out to those affected by the flooding in the Pacific Northwest. We are very fortunate not to have any trouble at our house, even though we're in the flood plane.
I seldom miss a PTI MIM challenge & this week I HAD to participate with the challenge being Embellishing with Felt. Hard to believe now, but when I first saw felt used in stamping magazines I wasn't impressed. Eventually I thought it might be OK for snowflakes & then the bug hit me & I bought about 20 different colors to use for everything! Today's card uses the PTI Twig Wreath stamps & dies. I love that it works for any occasion--just vary the colors. The inks are Brilliance Pearlescent Chocolate (also used for splatters) & Poppy (second generation) along with PTI Spring Rain & Fine Linen. Decided a sentiment would detract, so just put it inside. Only a couple more Christmas cards to make & mail--feels good! I'm entering Lori's Christmas/Winter Challenge #2 & CASE-ing Christmas Anything Winter Holiday (challenge closing), Dies R Us Christmas Challenge, SSS Monday, Time Out Challengesphoto inspiration & Twofers. Thanks so much for stopping by.
Absolutely beautiful Greta! I've never tried die cutting on felt but I am certainly inspired to give it a try after seeing your beautiful creation! Thanks so much for playing in our ‘CHRISTMAS’ challenge at Dies R Us! Please come back again soon!
When I saw this MIM technique I immediately thought of you!! PRETTY card Greta, that is a great wreath. So happy you have no flooding. My heart aches for those that are dealing with this, especially with it being the holiday season.
Don't you just love that wreath set. I have made lots of cards with it already. I really like your color combo and will have to lift it to make another card
Glad to see you haven't floated away with this latest deluge of rain! Your card is very pretty and once again I can't wait to get that Twig Wreath set!
What a beautiful card, Greta. So classy! Thank you so much for joining our last CASE-ing Christmas challenge. We truly appreciate your support and hope to see you again soon. Happy Christmas! hugs, Asha
Absolutely gorgeous! I LOVE the beautiful wreath you created and the CAS feel of the card overall! Just so elegant! Thank you for joining us at CASE-ing Christmas! Sending HUGS! :) Mynn xx
Beautiful wreath, Greta, all decked out with felt die cuts. Yes, we lucked out Friday because our property was being threatened Thursday. Live on a lake and the water just kept rising...our dock was almost under water and definitely over our bulkhead. Eager for some sunshine to dry things up a bit. We just faced a drought this summer...so bizarre.
Your felt wreath is lovely, Greta! I'd love to try die-cutting with felt, but don't have a place here to buy any of 'quality'. On the shopping list for our next trek to the 'big city.' My cards are pretty much done; writing a note, addressing and mailing come next. Watch your mailbox *grin* (likely it will arrive late, but hoping not!) Hugs~c
I love that you used felt for your wreath. Makes it very "touchable"! Thanks so much for joining us at CASE-ing Christmas!
