I so enjoyed looking at the IC site today. We used to know someone through business who had his own TV show doing painting, and because he knew I made fancy shirts for DH, I ended up making some for him - even one that he wore for the cover photo of one of his books. I am just glad it wasn't jackets he was into!!
I chose this plaid and knew straight away I was going to do some paper-weaving.
This is also for the ODBD Stamping in Time assignment to make a scripture the focal point of your card.
5 3/4" square base. All the coloured papers are Sizzix Little Sizzles, cut in 1/2" strips. The sentiment was stamped with orange and embossed with clear EP. I inked a flourish up with Brilliance Peacock and clear EP, and punched a butterfly from a scrap of paper.
Wouldn't you know it - I just packed up my old second-hand purple Wizard and posted it off this morning to a friend, as DH is giving me the raspberry one for Christmas. So no embossing, no Nestabilities and I was just lucky to find a flourish in the box on my desk, but it was matt silver, hence the need to ink and emboss it.

Hey Sabrina, I just adored that plaid, but didn't have the patience to paper weave, yours is wonderful. And I love that scripture. Abiding in perfect peace.
Merry Christmas.
