i use my quilting material and batting to make cards, i use spray starch and iron so its crisp looking put glue on the back and i some times sew around the edges to make it pop, its look’s so nice and people are just crazy about it . i also use the fabric and batting to make frames for my cards, i glue the batting on card stock and then the fabric on top of that and glue to the card or sew, it makes a very interesting card or art as some people say.

I was just this moment flipping thru the Google Preview of your book and put it on my list for shopping tomorrow (Black Friday)!
A supply to play with would be great!
I can’t wait to get your book – it’s my birthday gift to myself.
Sincerely

This is getting the creative juices going. I have tea dyed batting and used it for card making. Years ago I made a little teddy bear out of batting,just so soft and cuddly. Happy days.

I love you idea, I will have to get this book.. I am a quilter, and paper artist too, I have lots of batting pieces left over from projects, I have never used the bamboo, but have seen it. Does it work on reg. cotton batting as well? Just beautiful ..

The card is so beautiful! Love the idea of embossing the batting. I’ve used fabric scraps and feathers in a mixed media collage. I’ve used CDs as the clacker (the item at the bottom of the cord that holds the item that hits the aluminum tubes) when making wind chimes. I’ve used rubber stamps to emboss velvet….. hmmm wonder if they would work with the batting as well. Thanks for the chance to win.

I’ve use leftover scraps of batting as cushions between my china to protect them while storing. I cut them into circles a little smaller than the plates.

I would love to try the bamboo batting.

This is an absolutely beautiful project! I would never have thought of embossing batting and like the fact that you’re using Fairfield’s Bamboo batting. And how I do love the Vintaj line and that you’ve used the three of their items to embellish your work. I’d love to win!!

I have used layers of batting under my sofa slipcovers on the cushion area. It keeps the slipcover from slipping and hides the crease where two cushions meet.
