A very big crafty hello! Welcome to Day 2 of our very special blog hop collaboration with Pretty Pink Posh and Glue Dots Adhesives!
This is Day 2 of a fun blog hop with PRIZES from both companies up for grabs, along with inspiration and videos. The talented crafters along the hop will be bringing you an array of projects, coloring inspiration, and a variety of ways to have fun with both Pretty Pink Posh and Glue Dots collectively!
The entire list of stops along the blog hop are listed at the bottom of this post - as well as info on the prizes up for grabs, so keep reading!
For my cards, I pulled out some felt and my Pretty Pink Posh Fall Tags Dies - and put that super sturdy adhesive to good use!
I used some felt from my stash, and was just crazy enough to pull out my needle and thread and hand stitch around each leaf! I used the cuts from the dies as a guide - because even though they didn't show up well alone on the felt, they still cut through nice and clean and clear.
Once each one was stitched, I die cut a Stitched Diamond, gathered them into a cluster, and then used the XL Glue Dots sheets to attach them down. Worked like a dream!
I also die cut a rectangle from Stitched Notes Dies, then used the Glue Dots Stitch Glue Squares tape runner to attach the layers all together.
I bundled some twine through the holes at the bottoms of the tags, and tied in a pretty bow, and stamped a sentiment from Fall Scene at the bottom of each.
Finished off with a sprinkling of jewels - Buttercream on the card with brighter spring colored leaves, and Ivory on the more traditional fall colored one.

ReplyDeleteLovely cards. Love the hand stitched leaves!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing...
I love the idea of the felt. Great idea and I am sure the glue sheet really helped. Liquid adhesive would just make a mess. Great idea on using this. I must keep it in mind. I love your cards and the added stitching and die you used. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I love how you sewed the felt and did it in two color combos!!!
ReplyDeleteNot to be mean but it would be nice if you would say something unique about each person's project on the hop instead of just copying and pasting "I love what you created!" on every single post on the hop ;(
ReplyDeleteLovely creations! :)
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful are these Heather? Love the felt leaves, especially the darker ones. One thing is for sure, with glue dots you don't need to worry about your felt staying on your cards. That is what I love about them, they will hold ANYTHING! Well done!
ReplyDeleteLove the use of different shapes for the
ReplyDeletebackground layers. The felt is a great
idea for a fall leaf. Wonderful cards.
