I love the Girls' Paperie design papers.....sigh. So I decided to make a card that showcased the papers mainly. All I did was add some die-cut felt roses and some pretty crochet lace. I love the way the felt roses turned out - they went together like butter!
supplies: ivory cardbase, Girls' Paperie dps from the "Vintage Whimsey" and "Jubilee" collections, a strip of light blue cs, white crochet lace from Carole, leaves from some old fabric flower stems, Die-namics rolled rose dies, pink and blue felt scraps, Hero Arts CL490 Sending Smiles Messages, versafine onyx black ink
As I was reading my dashboard this morning, I came across Suzanne's post, where she mentioned a new (to me) challenge blog called City Crafter. They are certainly NOT new - this is their 57th week! The challenge there this week is "Stripes and Polka Dots" - what a coincidence! So I'm entering this card into the challenge there. Here is the lovely inspiration picture:

All right! You did try the flower dies with felt! Isn't it great? Your flowers and card look so pretty! I think the flowers roll better with felt, but then again, I've mostly use it with felt so maybe I just got used to doing them with felt?
And it turned out gorgeous! A lovely, feminine and romantic take on the challenge!
Beautiful! Love your papers and wonderful for the challenge. The felt roses are perfect!
Beautiful, Lin! I love those felt roses. They add just the right touch to your card! I must try felt, haven't done that yet. Love the challenge too...maybe I'll do something with polka dots!
Thank you for teh inspiration Lin! I love how you used that beautiful paper! I also bought a sheet of it, just because I loved it, nothing else! Now I need to make something with it! Love your felt flowers!
So pretty! The papers, the flowers...love this! Another "Lin" card!
this is so a "Lin" card.... very pretty and feminine looking. I have those dies but haven't used felt yet... stunning flowers.. I think it is the pretty colours... I only have bright felts... look like a trip to the haberdashery shop is in order!
