All Sewn Up

SAM_4912(watermarked).JPG
Materials used:
The Paper Shelter - Vintage Seamstress
acrylic greeting stamp
printer paper
X-Press It card
Copic pens
2 buttons
15cm square card blank
black archival ink pad


The coloured image was a bit too fiddly to fussy cut so I used a Copic pen to colour in the white parts as closely resembling the colour of the backing paper as I could get.

The mat is printed from the same kit and trimmed to fit the card blank. The two buttons cover two buttons on the paper.

I made this card for a friend who is retireing from the same school I worked at. She is a wonderful seamstress among other talents and thought this would be just right for her.

Thanks for dropping in. Take care.
