This post has got to be short & sweet because I need to take my little girl to pre-k pretty soon...but I wanted to get this up before I go! It's another week of Waltzingmouse Sketch challenges, and I took the opportunity to sew on this card with my new sewing machine!!!! Yay...I'm a terrible sew-er, and I've struggled with a few machines before stumbling onto this one which was recommended by my idol, Debbie Olson...it's so user friendly that even a klutz like me can use it with pretty good results! It is
this one, that I got at Walmart for a very affordable price. I love it!
So without blah blah blah-ing any further, here is this week's sketch:
And my interpretation:
Have a great day everyone!
Supply list:
Cardstock: Cream (OT)
Patterned Paper: from Love Letters collection (SU)
Stamp Set(s): Words of Wisdom, Dainty Doilies Lg (WMS)
Ink/Colorants: Riding Hood Red (SU); Black embossing powder (CTMH)
Embellishments: Black double stitched ribbon (SU)
Tools: Large scalloped circle dies (Spellbinders)
This is so beautiful! Wonderful design and take on the sketch! Love it!

I think your sewing looks so great, Rachel! Makes me want to get out my "collecting-dust-but-actually-used-only-2-times sewing machine" :) I had a friend teach me how to thread it, but by now I think I have forgotten. Only red thread for me right now :) BACK to your card... love the sentiment stamped over the doily like that...and beautiful colors, too!
ReplyDeleteLove the papers, the colours, that doily and verse are just stunning. And the sewing's good too! Great work!
