Something else that I have been loving is felting!! Here are two Easter cards. I stamped the images from Stampin’ Up! set “A Good Egg”. I stamped on wool felt with regular basic black pad and cut it out with the Big Shot die, Top Note. I used wool roving and needle felted it to fill it in. I blanket stitched around the Top Note frame and then layered it on fabric. I also used some of Stampin’ Up! alphabet die’s and die cut the letters out of matching fabric.

I have been dabbling in some FUN new crafts! First I would like to share some pictures of my upcycled purse made out of wool suits. I used Stampin’ Up Big Shot banner die as well as the butterfly and scalloped circle for the flowers. The lapel along the bottom of the purse is a pocket. On the back of the purse, I utilized the front pocket since it works great as a cell phone holder

Here is another fun frame for the holidays!  I love the reindeer!  They are made with punches and a dye from the Big show machine!  I used the Jingle Bells words to the outside of the frame from Stampin’ Up! decore elements line! 

These were so much fun!  I made theser to sell at at the craft show that I was going to participate in on Saturday however my daughter was sick so I couldn’t attend.  Let me know what you think!  The 3-D turned out a little blurry.  But everything is 3-D and the snowmen have actual hats and scarves that are felt type material.  The title reads "In the meadow we can build a snowman".  The cool thing about these frames are you can change the pictures for each season!

I will be participating in the Craft Bazaar on Saturday, November 28th.  The bazaar will be held at Wesley United Methodist Church, 40 W. Main Street Strasburg from 8AM – 3PM.  There will be lots of great gifts for your friends and family.  I will have a lot of stocking stuffers, teachers gifts as well as my vintage snowmen.  Besides paper crafting and scrapbooking, I have a passion for primitive antiques and vintage items.  If you have any quesions, give me a call or shoot me and email.
