This is for the TSC challenge in where we had to make a sewing card with no buttons and no pink! I just got in my new SU! Sew Suite stamp set...wahhhoooo!!!!
I colored the spools with Prismacolored pencils and added silver metallic pen to the needle.
What do you think?

Oh my gosh, I love this. I am a sewer so I can appreciate the pretty papers and imagery on this cute cute card. I love it. The tape measures are adorable. What a fun and fabulous card.

Cute card - love the images and papers - they are so cool together. I remember having one of those tomato pin-cushions back in my sewing days (actually, they are more like pretend sewing days). I wanted to do this challenge this weekend but never got around to it - I may still try.

I think I'd better take another look at this stamp set - even though I don't sew. I love your design the spools of thread w/ the pincushion b/g is lovely and the tape measure strips rock. Pretty cool card.
