Another Snowman in a Hoop

So, as I was experimenting with embroidery hoop crafts, I decided to create a little snow scene in felt. I love how cozy felt looks for winter decor. Of course, it's 90 degrees here in Ohio, but let's pretend it's winter for just a moment and enjoy the snow scene.



I made his head a little larger than his body just to make him a little cuter and added enamel dots for his face. The star stickers are Doodlebug design and came in different colors. I just used lids to trace around for the circles and guessed on the hat pieces. 

You can use fabric glue to secure the pieces or create a variety of little felt pieces that you could use for different scenes. The felt sticks to itself and it could be a little play piece for traveling for kids. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Friday!

Feelling Like Fall

The temperature is a little cooler today, making it feel a little more like fall. So I'm sharing a fall birthday card I made over the weekend. It features the Fall Felt Leaves from Hero Arts that I got at a2z Scrapbooking Supplies. They're just $1.50 for twelve leaves and are the perfect size for cards and layouts.



I used glue dots to attach my leaves. The flourish background uses the Leafy Vines stamp. I love this stamp—it's so versatile and looks great as a focal point or background. And the size is just right for cardmaking. If you think it's just right for you, you can get it at a2z here.



I also used Hero Arts ink and it may surprise you to learn I used the Neon Red. This is just how it looks on my text paper, I didn't tone it down or anything. Planning to experiment some more with the neon inks today. And guess what? You can get the ink at, yep, a2z!

If you spend $25 or more, you can use my 15% off code—CHARK15—to reward your good taste :) Because we crafters have to stick together and enable each other!

Happy Wednesday!
