Tea with Flopsey with Texture

MFT's April Ambassador Challenge #2 is to create a card that uses different textures. The first texture I thought of was Fun Flock, so next my mind went to Flopsey. I have this set, Tea with Flopsey, from last month's release that hadn't seen ink yet, so I went with it!


I airbrushed the sky and ground, then added some grass with the same Copic marker. The sentiment is from the Bunny Slippers set. I embossed the green panel with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder (still my absolute favorite!) and pierced the main panel. My last texture was distressing the edges of the green and brown panels.

Here's a close shot of Flopsey (drinking his green tea):


For the flocking, I used the same technique as on the card here, which is to cut a piece of cardstock in a color that matches the flock, cover with double sided adhesive (I use red liner sheets), and cover with flock. Then I stamp my image on my new flocked sheet and cut out. I feel this method gives the best coverage and then I'm not flocking over stamped lines which can obscure them.

Hope you like my textured card and TFL!
