Did I mention that I love the new MFT Die-namics cloud and scallop die I have? Dang they are so cute!!! For this sample I wanted to try out how the dies cut the fabric and felt ….. the answer is…LIKE BUTTER. I did have to run the felt through the machine twice to make sure it cut all the way through. It was cheap 29 cent felt from Michaels.

I taped my fabric border and felt flowers to a 3 3/4″ square of My Minds Eye Just Dreamy 2 paper and stitched it to a 3 15/16″ square of Chocolate chip cardstock. The felt clouds were also stitched to the layers for extra texture.  A 1/2″ circle was punched out of fabric adhered to cardstock (okay, it didn’t cut all the way through, but after punching it left a mark and I cut it with scissors). It was adhered to Stampin’ Up! Build A Brad. It was attached to the layers on the upper left hand side with a small strip of Chocolate Chip Grosgrain ribbon. Everything was attached to a 4 1/4″ x 8 1/2″ piece of textured Real Red cardstock folded in half with dimensionals.

I stamped Rainfall Flopsey in Black Memento ink on Neenah Solar White cardstock and colored it in with Copic Markers (BG000, BG01, R27, R29, E11, E13, E15). I stamped the umbrella on fabric, cut it out and layered it on the cutout umbrella. I added Glossy Accents over the boots and the puddle and adhered Flopsey to the card with dimensionals.

For the inside of the card I adhered my cloud masks to  a 3 3/4″ square of Whisper White cardstock and sponged Tumbled Glass Distress Ink over the cardstock.. A strip of fabric that had been cut with the scalloped scallop die-namics  was adhered to the bottom of the square, then the square was stitched to a 3 15/16″ square of Chocolate chip cardstock.

I couldn’t fit a sentiment to the front of the card, so I stamped it on the largest cloud die cut with Black Memento ink and adhered it over the sponged clouds.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day! Hugs and smiles
