Valentine Angels Pillow

As you could see from my Tuesday To-Do post, I was really wanting to make a pillow.
Since we are frozen in here, I couldn't just run down to the fabric store to get some felt so I had to make due with supplies I had on hand. (Left over fabric, freezer paper, ribbon and a printer.)

This adorable graphic was found at Old Pixels.  I uploaded it to Photoshop and added our initial.
Then I ironed the paper and freezer paper together.  Using a piece of 8.5" x 11.5" cardstock as my guide, I cut the fabric/freezer paper to fit the printer.  It was amazing out beautifully it worked!
***NEW***
Here's a link to printing on fabric using freezer paper!

I then made a simple ruffle with my ribbon & sewed it all together.  (I just love a little leopard!!!)
Anyway, if you haven't tried the whole freezer paper idea...do!  Its so fun!

    Love you pillow! I am not sure I am understanding how to do this though- will you be doing a tutorial or is there one I could go to using this technique?

    The angels are so sweet and the initial is such a great added touch!
