Hi there! I have a fun project to share today! I had fun creating something a little different for me, so I hope you'll enjoy the finished product. I've been seeing all of these adorable felt plushies everywhere, but I've never created any, so I decided to give it a go. I used some of my favorite Sack It Dies from Taylored Expressions along with some fabulous TE Felt!!
I decided on using the Sack It - Crab, Sack It - Frog, Sack It - Chick and the Sack It - Lamb. I thought these would be adorable little characters to start and could be a good range of colors. With all but the frog, I also used the Stitched Circle Stacklets for the body. For the crab, I used Flamingo Felt to die cut all of the pieces.
The frog was created using Split Pea and Mustard. The eyes and mouth were created with Espresso.
For the lamb, I used Marshmallow along with Khaki and Cotton Candy. The eyes, mouth and feet were created using Espresso.
My last little friend was the chick. For the chick I used Mustard, Marshmallow and Carrot. In case you were wondering, I didn't have any black felt, so for the chick and the crab's eyes and the crab's mouth, I used Marshmallow and then colored the pieces with a black Sharpie! LOL The things we crafters do in a pinch! :)
All of these were stuffed with pieces of a plastic grocery bag and hot glued together. The grocery bag makes a little crinkle sound when you squeeze them! These were SO much fun to make and I will definitely make some more to add to the collection! My kids have already made their claims on these! LOL I hope you've been inspired to get out your felt and create something! Thanks for stopping by today and have a great day!
