Waste not....

One of the crafting oaths we take is to NEVER throw things away...right? That is why our craft rooms often look like a true mish mash of things and scraps. Yesterday I made that nifty little felt frame for my card. In order to achieve that frame I laid 2 nestability die cuts down on my felt and cut. I used the frame but could not "Bear" to throw out that remaining yummy felt cut out....so you see it here today!
Lots of fun little details in this card. The felt ric rac I picked up at my local fabric shop and yes, I airbrushed it to the perfect shade of green. The bear I colored with copics and then covered him with glossy accents (ranger) and then took my heat gun to him and overheat the glossy so it bubbled up and gave him texture. I was experimenting and it came out really neat!
