I'm having the typical photo problems. My bright orange flower is really Papertrey Ink's Orange Zest felt and their Orange Zest is almost exactly Stampin' Up's Pumpkin Pie.
Some of my die cuts are the flower - I cut four felt flowers from Papertrey Ink's Beautiful Blooms #1 die, the biggest flower. Then I folded each into quarters. I didn't have any glue specific to felt - so I simply took a little stitch in each to hold them together. This is definitely not an original idea to me, I have seen these folded flowers on many other cards. I have not seen them in felt and I'm not sure I would recommend it - it is so thick and bulky. On the other hand, it's a very warm look - like a fuzzy blanket!
