Challenge Title: ALL THE FEELS Hostess: rgrohall aka Rebecca Keyword: FF17rgrohall Date: 10/16/2017
As a Floridian, I have a rather unusual (for our tropical area) hobby, I am addicted to wool and felting! Years ago on a visit to Michigan, I encountered needle felting for my very first time in Frankenmuth. I came home with a starter kit and it quickly snowballed. I took a few felting courses and bought nearly every book I could find on the subject. I purchased bags of wool, and when I travel - I love to come home with wool.
So we are going to twist this challenge up by adding FELT to your project. Your challenge is to create a project using wool felt, it can be an element you created (needle felted or wet felted), using store bought felt (perhaps a die cut element?) or felt ribbon. There are no limits!
Thanks for playing along! I can't wait to see what you do! I would love it for cards coordinate with Card Drive #3 Forgotten 4 Paws! For this card drive, you are asked to send thank you cards to send to those who have adopted animals, thinking of you, get well, and birthday cards to use for the volunteers, etc. They prefer cat and dog-related, but welcome any theme/design.

Hi Rebecca! Nice to share this day with you and your wonderful challenge. I have two cards I finished last night. Just have to photograph them to post. I hope we get lots of chats and cards today.
Great challenge, thanks! I love texture, so felt flowers were the right embellishment for my rabbit themed card. Added some color with 2 washi tape large border and 2 mini borders. and my blender pen to give my main panel that watercolor look. Here's Rabbit Wishes

I�m looking forward to making this one! I must admit I�ll have to dig some felt out... but I love using �different� elements on my cards, so this will be fun! Thanks for the inspiration!
Inked up a never-inked stamp that's been in waiting for a few years. Rebecca's challenge + the Forgotten 4 Paws organization seems to be its perfect calling. ;)
I am squeeing with delight at the cards already completed in the gallery! Can't wait to see what else folks dream! Don't forget .... there is plenty of time to play along! Just make sure you're completed by October 31st at noon central time!
Thanks for the challenge Rebecca! I cut some deer from my felt...some of the more delicate parts didn�t fare so well...oh well, I still like how it turned out.
A few years ago I had to make some felt banners for a prison ministry I do, and I had lots of scraps left over. Glad I kept them as they came in handy for your challenge. Here's is my card:
