Making Cards with Felt Stickers

If your crafting on a budget, there is no better place to shop than JoAnn's Fabrics and Crafts. My favorite spot are 'The Dollar Bins', where you can find so many goodies. There are acrylic stamps, wood stamps, ribbon, embellishments, and anything else you can imagine for only $1.00. My latest find are these ADORABLE Felt Stickers. I thought they would make the CUTEST cards, and they did. Here is a group shot of three cards I made, and the some of the felt stickers. Here's a card I made using the Mitten Felt Stickers. I embossed the green background with a Cuttlebug Folder and then wiped white ink over it. The sentiment is retired Stampin Up. The tag is a Spellbinder's Nestabilities Die. The string is from Martha Stewart.
My second card is my personal favorite. I hand cut the snow using felt and a pinking shears. Then I sprayed adhesive on it and sprinkled it with glitter. The ribbon has snowman images on it. I purchased that at Michaels several years ago. All the paper is from last years DCWV Holiday Stack. The foam snow flakes were also purchased at JoAnn's.

And my last card uses the penguin felt sticker from JoAnn's. What a cutie hey? I love the Santa Hat.



I hope I've inspired you to hit the dollar bins at JoAnn's....everyday they have something different in there, you'll never know what you'll find.
Have a great day! Amy

  3. Does JoAnn's pay you extra to advertise their merchandise? :-)

    These felt stickers ARE adorable and the price is right. The cards you made with them are precious.

    Regarding your comment about sending out tons of cards but getting few in return... I know what you mean. I send out cards for any and every occasion to my family members and I seldom get anything in return. My sister says that the reason she doesn't send a card is because my birthday is too early in the month (it's the 3rd of the month) so she doesn't remember it until she turns the calendar page on the 1st and by then it's too late to mail one. We've been sisters for over 45 years. You'd think she would remember my birthday by now.
