Happy Saturday! We have another fun challenge at Speedy Fox & Friends! The challenge this week is to make a "vintage" card. I am sneak peeking the set "I'm in Stitches" that will be released later this week at
Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich Co. I had a lot of fun with this one. I took out a die set that I bought awhile back but hadn't used yet. It's perfect for a card for my MIL. My MIL makes the most beautiful quilts. We have been blessed to be recipients of several!!! She is recovering from foot surgery so I hope this puts a smile on her face!
I hope to see your beautiful vintage work
Here at Speedy Fox & Friends
I played with heat embossing again this week. I think it gives a nice shiny look to the sewing machine(although in this picture you can't see it shine). I sponged a bit of Tim Holtz Vintage Photo onto the white spaces on the machine to give it the "vintage" look.
Here is a close up of my sewing machine. I poked some holes and "threaded" the sewing machine!
Here is the inside of the card: My DH gave me the idea to add pins to the pin cushion!!!
Angie--this card is so cute! I love the added pins to the inside of the card in the pincushion! I drew pins in on my pincushion for the blog hop next week. I guess great minds think alike! LOL Great job. TFS
ReplyDeleteGorgeous background. That die set will work great with this set. Wonderful job.
ReplyDeletePerfect background for that stamp. Great card.
ReplyDeleteOh Angie-I love this one!! Love the way you added all the details-the lace, button and thread on the sewing machine-you are so talented and inspiring
ReplyDeleteAngie,
ReplyDeleteHow pretty! You really did an amazing job creating the "vintage feel." I love the quilted BG and your shiny sewing machine! My grandmother had an old shiny machine!!
Angie, great combo of the quilt pattern and sewing machine. Great job with these projects.
ReplyDeleteI love these. The quilt card rocks. did you have a template or did you do it freehand? love it!!!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is WOW. Your cards are amazing. The details are so intricate. Great job.
ReplyDeleteSo many wonderful details !! Love that you threaded the machine and embossed it! Beautiful quilt too! Thanks for the kind comment on my blog! Your card is fantastic!(pinning it!)
ReplyDeleteAngie, these are both SO VERY cool. I love them, what a lot of work in the quilt one. Did she love it?
ReplyDeleteOops, I see now that is one card showing the inside. Well I still love it,even more now and the inside could easily be another whole card . 😊
