Over at Fashionable Stamping Challenges the current challenge is dressmaking, corsets etc. Again I really just had an urge to play (shouldn't really as I still have boxes to finish for today's workshop but hey ho all will get done in time) so here is my card...
It's an 8x8 kraft card and I have tried to achieve a patchwork to go with the sentiment I used:- "A Family is a patchwork of Love". All stamps used are from Creative Expressions vintage sewing plate - even my tape measure is a stamp.
My image is from Marianne Design and she has been embossed and then cracked to give an aged feel. My scissors are also from Marianne Design.
I hope you are able to see the different machine stitching between the paper panels. My paper rosettes have been made using an EK Sucess punch.
I am also entering this card into the: Creative Craft Challenge - "Faux or Real Stitching"
Right back to the boxes! Well maybe some toast and another cup of tea first! Suzanne ~x~
