YUMMERS!

I am always reading and always looking for a bookmark.

They seem to mysteriously disappear in our house.

I thought I'd just cut some scrapbook paper strips...

but the UPS man brought a package of hand-dyed

wool felt to add to my growing stash.

It has the greatest feel to it and I love the colors.

Ahhhhh... it will make great bookmarks!!!

Such fun to play with and sew on.

The machine sewing really flattens out the felt

and makes it quite thin for marking your place in a book.

I created these four quite quickly and am anxious

to make more. But I'll share these first.

1.) Little Blue House.

My machine sewed through the plastic letters

without any problem. But they are quite thin.
2.) The Carrot

I just bought some adorable ceramic carrots

for the kitchen window ledge. They make

me think of Spring and rabbits.

3.) The Heart Message
I love hearts and had to make one with the
gorgeous burgundy dyed felt.
I added 'a thought'... rubber stamped on
cardstock. 4.) A Definition
Just playing... felt, cardstock, and ribbon.
I bought the felt on http://www.etsy.com/.
But I can't remember the seller's name
I found the ribbon it was tied with and it said
"Marcus Brothers Textiles" on it.
Hope that helps if anyone is looking for more like this.

Happy creating!!

Off to watch 'Michael Clayton' before the Oscars.
It has 8 nominations and is on Pay-per-view.
Missed it at the theater.
