Hi everyone! I'm Terri and I have the honor of being the guest designer this month. When Noel told me I could pick any paper pack in the store, I was so excited. I decided to get the Sassafras Lass Life is Beautiful - Starry Night package because I adore Sassafras Lass and the color blue (similar collections are available (click the 2nd page link) in other color schemes). These paper packs are really great because you get a ton of cardstock weight paper as well as die cuts shapes and letters and letter stickers. I find their papers very easy to use for a variety of subjects - really classic. Did I mention they are gorgeous too!

So I was working on a layout today and I thought my little felt heart would be adorable with some ribbon attached. So of course i whipped out my stapler to attach is to a corner of the heart. Well that didn't work. I just smooshed the felt..tried again..another smoosh.
So I thought about it and put a piece of scrap heavyweight paper on the backside of the felt and voila...worked like a charm! So remember when you want to staple felt you need to add card stock behind and then trim around to avoid the "smoosh".
