Talk about a trip down memory lane! I just really enjoyed looking thru my faves. Haven't done that in a while. For mine, I chose one of the 3 earliest in my list. I don't know which I faved first but they were all very close together. The one I used was a card of Cindy's...Mothermark's M&M Bouquet. I just loved the colorful, happy look of it. I started out w/ a clear plan to CASE it, but as usual, it went a little sideways. I think you can still see the layout, though I changed the colors, papers and images.
The big pincushion is paper pieced. It was pretty tricky cutting out the dk green outline to place on top of the other colors, but I think it worked out ok. The tall pincushions are a die cut.
I used a dk green embossed strip in place of Cindy's ribbon and some dp in place of her strip bg. I also added some scalloped borders and a little faux stitching along w/ 2 buttons. The finished card measures 4.25 x 5.5.
Thanks so much for looking! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.
