WT757 - Thread (09/12/19)

Hello and Happy Thursday Friends!

It's my turn to hostess another Ways To Use It challenge. For no particular reason, I chose thread this week. I was surfing Pinterest and saw some really lovely cards made using thread.

There are several ways to meet this challenge. You could use a thread image. You could stitch on your card. You could use a thread image...I found one in my stash. You could use thread as an accent or embellishment.

I also found a fun and easy (albeit messy) technique called thread painting. I have also seen it called string painting. Here's a link for a really do-able technique:

Great challenge. I tried this technique a few months ago pulling string...it turned out awful but I may give it another go...yours turned out beautiful. Thanks for the challenge. Happy day

I had a ton of fun playing with scraps to make a sewing themed card Toni.

Toni- thanks for the great challenge! For my card I used a variety of mellow browns, greens and golds for my card base. I substituted a recycled clean gallon zip lock bag for my gloves, and added a pink flower on top of my thread painting. Finished with a cotton thread wrap. Here's petals galore

aztk: Dream Vacation Ireland

Hello,
It was so fun to see this challenge just a couple weeks since I did some 'sewing'. I don't do it often, but this scrapbook/journal went together with the sewing technique and little glossy accent glue for added stability. hope you enjoy my post. tfl, Teresa

For my second card for this challenge I combined my thread painted panel, fussy cut, and glued to a spider themed background. Added a googly eyed Frankenstein, and a baker's twine bow. All mounted on bright green corrugated cardstock, with a calligraphy style sentiment block. Used a Halloween themed lap quilt for my background photo. Here's web time

Here is mine. :) Need to start using this thread I bought from SU! a couple of years ago!

This was really fun, Toni. I feel like I got a little hug from my Mom. She, too, couldn't throw away anything that was usable.
