Here's a card I made to go along with the Cuttlebug Challenge Blogspot Cuttlebug University primer on sewing on cards. Be sure to stop over there and pick up a tip or two on stitching. You could win a really nice copy of a sewing magazine and some thread!
Image is a vintage print. I kept the stitching simple with straight stitching and zig zags... my preferences for stitching on cards. I added some Cuttlebug folder dry embossing, as well as a Cricut cut sewing machine paper embellishment. There are various buttons, to include the tiny regular buttons and a couple of pearl buttons used for flower centers. The pink flower with a gold center is a button and the sewing machine in the lower right corner is a button, too!
I used the 'negative' from the sewing machine cut out to embellish the top of the box.
Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate it SEW much!!

ReplyDeleteJust discovered your site. Your cards are stunning. Thanks for the tips on stitching on cards. I have been wanting to do this but wasn't sure how to go about it. I know I could have just experimented, but I'm one who likes direction. What can I say, I read the manual before using any new gadget :-)
