since i used the girl felt embellishments … i decided i had to use the boy ones too! although just this very minute … it dawned on me that i didn't even think to use the cute pattern papers that go with these! that's what i get for putting things away … i forget to use them! oh well, fun to pull out random things and make them work.

how cute is this dinosaur? haley saw this today and is convinced it's a turtle. lol! i came across this "birthday" chipboard word and figured i'd use it. the one kind of card i always need is birthday cards … and yet i never seem to make them. so now i have at least one!

i'm still a little torn on how to adhere felt to projects. i'm a big glue-dot person … but even those aren't the most secure things with the felt. i just added a brown mini brad right over one of the brown dots already on the embellishment. i also added some glue-dots … but the brad will make sure it stays.

this one looks better in person. the clouds look better. i handcut the clouds from some vellum .. and then ran them through the cuttlebug to emboss them and adhered them with some pop-dots to make them sort of look like they were floating off the card. thought they went with the cute airplane. and can you tell how much i love those tiny alpha stickers lately?!?!

    I love these Laura!!! Fun with the tags and the felt shapes. Love the hand cut clouds. Funny because I made a card with hand cut shapes too and the mini alphas! And the CB…oh, can’t get enough. Love the swiss dot! TFS!!

    Wow! Now I really have to take out my cute world stuff and make cards. Yours is just too cute! BTW, run your felt through the Xyron machine and you will have a sticky backing.

    LOVE these Laura! Next time try either Fabri-Tac or Glossy Accents to hold down the felt. Works wonders!
    Loving these cards you’ve made — you need to sell these 😉 Man, I’d be buying a box to keep on hand, for sure!

    Hi there,
    these are such lovely cards!!
    May I know if the stitching on the dinosaurs are machine-stitched or hand-stitched? 🙂
