I hadn't noticed that MFT didn't have felt anymore. A while back they had buttons on a deep discount, and buttons aren't showing up anywhere in the shop, either.
Maybe it wasn't selling well. I bought one of their felt sheets in green to use with a leaf flourish die on Christmas tags. The color was great, but the slightest tug on the die-cut felt pulled it apart completely, so I didn't feel it was as good a quality as felt from other stores, like PTI's 100% wool felt.
And as for the cardstock, yeah, the new higher prices totally stink. All the new colors are labeled "Prestige", but I have no clue why that is supposed to be enough better to have such a price hike. That is 40% more per sheet! I've only bought the MFT colors that were noticeably different from other manufacturers, so don't need any at that price.
