Birthday Card Idea - Felt Flower

Birthday Card - Felt Flower

It's the first time I'm working with felt for my card creation and I'm excited. Felt comes in rainbow colors and you can create quite a number of things with felt - pouches, flowers, plushies, etc. It adds a wonderful texture and dimension to an otherwise flat paper.

If you're wondering how to adhere felt to paper, for me I'm using strong double-sided tape. This is an easy medium to work with and there's much possibilities you can explore with it. Have fun!

Card Making Steps

1. Create a cardblank. Cut out a large block of yellow felt and adhere it to the front of cardblank.

2. Cut out a brown flower from brown felt. You might want to trace the flower shape at the back of the felt before cutting it out. Next punch a circle from a floral patterned paper. Adhere the floral circle to the felt flower center. Sew thread through the pink button and attach it to the center of the floral circle. Attach this flower applique to the bottom of cardblank.

3. Cut out a strip of floral patterned paper and adhere it across the top of the cardblank.

4. Handwrite greetings on a block of white paper. Ink the edges with black ink. Attach it below the floral patterned paper strip.
