Hey, y’all – it’s Tuesday so we’re 2/5th of the way thru the work week.
I mean – if I tracked things like that.
Which I don’t.
🙂
My card today is actually cardS. Cards made using a seriously cool Project Kit from the Annual Catalog called…For the Love of Felt. Check it out!
This is a Project Kit – which means…you need to grab the For the Love of Felt stamp set separately.
Other than that, bring your inks (Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Sahara Sand, Pear Pizzazz and Shaded Spruce) and adhesive – Liquid Glue, SNAIL and Dimensionals. The Kit includes the rest of what you need to make 12 really pretty cards – 4 each of 3 designs, each with super cute felt embellishments!
Oh – and it has a seriously sweet box to contain your creations when they’re done!
I pulled my kit out on Monday and put it together. Here’s the cards – and the envelopes are all decorated on the front and the back flap. You know how much I like a decorated envelope!
Now – I’m going to show you a mistake.
Bad demonstrator? Maybe. But…I seriosuly WANT you guys to buy this kit – cuz it’s totes adorbs – and I seriously want you to end up with 12 cards that you LOVE!
So. Here’s my mistake.
See the problem? Know why I messed up?
I didn’t read the directions. And I got in a bit of a hurry. So…on this last design, I stamped the leaves first.
The directions CLEARLY tell you to stamp the sentiment first. If I had done that…the leaves would be where they belong and not on top of the sentiment!
So. Read. The. Directions. And…heck – I’d even FOLLOW them! LOL!
For The Love of Felt would be a really cool gift for someone – an entire set of wonderful note cards and envelopes, ready to send, in a perfectly decorated box
Check out this quick video and then….get it for yourself! 🙂
I hope you like!

I think it’s wonderful that you shared your mistake with us so that the boo boo ends with you! and, oh, that face! His nose is beautiful along with every other part of him. I still have a project kit that I haven’t played with…that has GOT to change!!
Well – I hate to think that folks would think the kit was the problem! Cuz it totally wasn’t – and it’s a totally GREAT kit! So… 🙂 Thanks, Karen – and yes. His schnoozle IS ever so sweet and beautiful! 🙂
Oh, that kit is really cute!! Love the designs and the colors. As for Finn…I’d hate to give him a complex. Ha! Cute picture!! 🙂
It really is an awesome kit! Thanks, Amy! 🙂
loooooove reading your blogs. esp today. the honest confession of a stamping mistake. the dog’s comment (right!!!) does my nose look big in this picture? i am only sorry i am a demonstrator already and so do all my buying through ME. and my beloved sister is my upline. sigh.

jo ann.
Oh – that’s sweet JoAnn! Very nice of you to say. Happy you enjoy my blog – and hoping that you’ve bought the For The Love Of Felt set for yourself – it’s one of my favorite kits!! 🙂
Lovely set of cards. Agree with you that admitting to a mistake is the way to go. I wouldn’t want anyone to think it was the fault of the kit either. And this would make a wonderful gift, especially for someone who might not be able to get out to shop for cards. (Who wants to send a store bought card anyway?
Right? Can’t even imagine it any more! Thanks so much, Julie! 🙂
