A FEW CARDS USING FABRIC...................................

Hello everyone...before I get into my projects..I wanted to remind everyone that the Cutting Cafe is having a Design Team call here...

...Okay today I want to share to cards using some awesome fabrics pieces that I got from ALL THINGS FABRIC.....it is a new shop with ...DUH...all things being fabric (smile)...fabric strips (great for making shabby ribbons), 6 by 6 squares (great for adding to your cards, layouts etc.), and other fabric embellishments....I thought I would combine a few Cutting Cafe items with some of the fabrics from the shop...

The first card up uses some fabulous Toile fabric...love that stuff...I added another handmade paper flower that I did myself using some Tim Holtz distressing ink.....the JUST SAYING HELLO is from a set called ALL OCCASION CIRCLE WORD SET 3 from the Cutting Cafe....you can find the Toile fabric at this link. She will be having a lot of one of a kind with some items only being one in stock....so you might want to hop on over there and check out what she has and get it while you can...if she hasn't uploaded some of these items I am featuring here on my blog...follow her site and check back later....(smile)My next card features a huge FABULOUS fabric rose....with brown glitter on it...I so love this...I made the card really simple to let the fabric rose stand out....I do know she only has one set of these left....so check that out ASAP...here.....I used one of the sentiments from the EVERYDAY GREETING SET 1....I am so proud of you...and the scallops come from the ASSORTED SCALLOPS over at the Cutting Cafe...
