For today's F4A70 Free for All Challenge: Stripes!
This took a little longer than I would have liked (the hand stitching took a while) but I really love how it turned out! My striped background paper is from a new favorite: Gertie Papers from the Stella and Rose Collection by My MindÂ’s Eye.
The retro sewing machine is a rub-on from Stampin' Up! I printed the S-E-W letters with my computer using a free font I downloaded from Creating Keepsakes.
Thanks for looking!

I love My Mind's Eye too! The concept for this card is so cute! I love the addition of the buttons and sewing machine! It may have taken longer than you thought- but it was definitely worth it! So cool!
Thanks for sharing!
