It’s been so long since I’ve had a chance to play along at the Play Date Cafe and today I needed a quick card for my niece who is having surgery next week, so I knew exactly where to go for inspiration. Of course it’s yet another gorgeous combination of colours, and what better time to play with my (nearly new) TAWS stamps – Gotta Bug?
BUT first of all I had to find the ‘flock’, I wanted to create one of those ‘fluffy’ hot water bottles (you know, like the one my grandmother had)…… I knew it had to be somewhere….. oh, and then I had to google how to use it.. yes, it’s really been that long! Thanks for stopping by!
Other Supplies: Copics – R81, G40, C0. Flocking Fibre – Rose Pink (The Stencil Specialists)

Aaaw your niece should love this Therese.
Super cute! Love the dry embossing on the background and the texture of the water bottle! She’ll love it! Thanks for playing at The Play Date Cafe.
The embossed background adds a great touch!
Oh, that fuzzy, fluffy texture is just perfect for this card Therese! Your card is SO cute. I’m sure your niece will love it!
Now you know it’s been too long when you have to remind yourself how to use it 😉 That’s too funny!
gah, hit enter too soon. I hate that! I love the fuzzy on the hot water bottle – that is too adorable, and too perfect for get well wishes. Good luck to your niece next week 🙂
Fabulous, Therese – perfect flocking too – I never have much luck getting it as even as this 🙂
That is sooo adorable, Therese!
How cute. The hot water bottle looks so warm and cosy – you almost want to stroke it.
Adorable Therese! I haven’t used flocking before, but this looks brilliant.
aww I love what you did with TAWS…looks so cute and the flocking is perfect..girl super cute card..love it
I had to laugh when I read about your long lost flock LOL! I stumbled across mine a couple of days ago and I though “I must use that soon” 🙂 FAB card Therese!
Such a cute card, love it!
Oh that hot water bottle looks so snuggly, the flocking is perfect and so is the PDC colour scheme for your card :0)

Oh my gosh. That’s the hot water bottle we had when we were kids. I love it! Fab card.
I love the soft and fuzzy water bottle!! And the embossed background is perfect – looks quilted and soft. 🙂
A snuggly fuzzy HWB and a cuddly quilt … fantastic, love this card! Anita in France 🙂
You know, I have flock and have NEVER used it, nor do I know how. Lol. This is absolutely fantastic and oh so clever! I do know those fuzzy bottles and it is just perfect for a get well card.
Popping back to congratulate you, Therese, for the CoC honor from PDCC. I would have been surprised if this had NOT been a winner!!
Aww…love that fluffy water bottle. Hope the surgery went well for your niece.
