A Stitch in Time - make a project using real or faux stitching, any occasion, any cartridge, any color
Here's my card:
Close up
Inside
My double "stitches" are done using the We R Sew Stamper tool. (I'll be honest, I'm not having the best of luck with this tool. I bet other people do great with it. I probably just am not using it right.)
I used the Nifty Fifties Cricut cartridge for the Sewing Machine,Dress, Dress Form and for the "UR Sew Fun" letters.
Most of the papers I used are from my scraps. The background paper is DCWV.
Ribbon is from my stash.
I used Martha Stewart Lilac ink to ink the edges.
I used my Marvy corner punch to round two of the edges.
The "You are the Best" stamped sentiment is form My Creative Time's "My favorite sayings" set.
I used sandpaper to rough up the gray layers.
I think that covers everything.
Thanks so much for looking. Don't forget to leave me a comment. I love hearing your thoughts on the project.
What a pretty, fun card, Chris! Thanks so much for playing Cricut Cardz Challenge at Cardz TV!

Thanks Michelle. I have trouble lining it up and it seems to blob the ink for me. :( I'll keep practicing. I'm sure you'll see me again for another challenge.
