Fabric Cards

I teach classes at a Crafter's Mall, inside the Crafter's Mall is a wonderful fabric shop filled with amazing fabrics of all kinds. Often while I am teaching my card classes there are quilting classes, and or, gatherings going on at the same time. Some of the quilters wonder in to our classroom just to see what we are up to, and I always enjoy looking in to see what they are doing too. I love quilting, but after my son became a toddler I put it away for a latter day, I guess I just got tired of taking what I just put together apart and starting over, let's just say I was too distracted to do it right! I started thinking (never a good sign) wouldn't it be wonderful to combined these two wonderful hobbies... and wouldn't it be fun to get some of those quilters to try something new.... and so I had a class with cards made with fabric and paper! I think I will be doing this again too as it was a big hit with all my regular paper crafting ladies! So fun and no sewing either, we used an iron on fabric adhesive to adhere the fabric to the card bases. This is one of my favorite cards from the 8 we made in class, I just love this felt poinsettia. I used my spellbinders dies to cut my felt and layered them with glue dots, the center is made from those tiny glass beads. The sentiment is one I will be using a lot from a newer set "With His Glory" from The Angel Company.

Hope that you are having a wonderful day! Thanks for stopping by.
