Our Daily Bread Designs challenge this week to make our own embellishment. All the details for the challenge will be on the blog on Saturday, Oct, 8th. Please use the keyword ODBDSLC79, so we can see your creations, and donÂ’t forget to enter your card in the challenge on the blog.
Because I wanted to use the stamp, Spool and Tape, I decided to make a little pincushion for my card, using red felt and some green material for the leaves. I stitched it together with embroidery thread and used some packing foam for the stuffing, then added a few quilting pins. I ran the sentiment from Sewn with Love through my big shot with Labels 18 and spritzed with champagne shimmery paint mixed with alcohol, then added a few extra layers of color behind. Next I stamped 2 layers of the Spool and Tape, and then an EXTRA spool, which I wound some thread around and added a needle, die cut the images, then layered them all up after I colored with copics. I sewed my background layers together, added some lace under the nestied sentiment, then added the Spool and tape, the pincushion, and some buttons. If you have a minute, I would love to know what you think!
Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you can join us in the challenge this week!
