Woolly Friends Faux Flocking Card

Today I wanted to share a card with you that I received in my swap using the Faux Flocking Technique. It’s so stinking cute! I just love this little lamb in the Woolly Friends Bundle (166888).

While this flocking technique has been around for awhile it’s use on this card drew my attention back to it again. The last time I saw it I was using a little edge Destressing Edge tool that Stampin’ Up! had back in the day. Today’s card uses a cheese grater to create the fluff. How cute right?

this card also uses the fun Old Olive Specialty Rickrack (167006) giving the card tons of texture.

While this card has lots of texture and layers it is really quite simple to do. The first two lambs are stamped and colored with a Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends. While this stamp set is a two step set a mask was created for the lambs face so the body wouldn’t cover it and the blends gives you a bit more control since it has the row of flowers that were stamped along the bottom. You’ll want to cover these also stamping the 2 lambs.

Next the lambs bodies and heads were stamped and punched out. A bit of the card stock fuzz was added and allowed to dry and then added to the card front. The

Adorable right? Who wouldn’t love to get one of these cards? I can’t wait to try this fun technique with my distressing tool and might even pull out my grater to see which I like better, about you?

Woolly Friends Valentine Treat Holder Tutorial

Need a last minute Valentine Treat for family or friends? How about a cute little bag? Today’s project is one that I whipped up to hold two little Kit Kat bars that I found at my local Target and could resist picking up. These cute little bears were wrapped in what looked like to me Poppy Parade and Pretty in Pink and Flirty Flamingo wrappers that I thought would match our Made with Love Designer Series Paper perfectly!

And since they came in a smaller package I wouldn’t have a lot of chocolate temping me after I made the treats. That’s a win, win for me.

Here is the little treat I made with them.

Cute right? I fell in love with this little lamb as soon as I saw the Woolly Friends stamp set (166881) and it’s coordinating Woolly Friends Builder Punch (166887) in the January – April Mini Catalog. AND since I’ve always loved punches I knew it would be one of my first purchases from the Mini.

Here is a quick tutorial for you to learn how I created this fun little treat.

I’ve also made a PDF tutorial for you with measurements, instructions, and link to the video tutorial so everything is in one place when you are ready to create.
