For my card I created a frame with a multi frame die and some crushed velvet cardstock that I've had for an absolute age. They had a last minute reprieve from the 'bin it' pile. The flowers are just punched, scrunched and layered together with a tiny brad. I machine stitched the stems and added some tiny hand cut leaves. Another scrap buster card.
Stamp - Paula Pascual - Mix & Match; Papers - My Minds Eye; Die: - Nellie's Multi Frames; Doodlebug Crushed Velvet Cardstock
So cute! I love the sewn stems, and the frame.
ReplyDeleteHow satisfying it must be to make something so beautiful using up existing stash, bet you're so glad the 'bin it' pile hadn't quite made it to the bin yet !! Absolutely lovely.
