PRINTED FELT APPLE CARD

This is one of Regal's cute apple cut-out cards.  I popped some paper scraps behind the stalk and leaves but the body of the apple is made with felt.  I inked the "bumpy" side of a Cuttlebug paisley embossing folder with silver ink and then ran it through the machine with the felt inside so that the pattern from the folder was printed onto the felt.  Its quite an effective technique, and very quick.  If you don't want to stain your embossing folder, though, it's a good idea to use a water-based ink and wash it up straight away in some warm soapy water.
