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!
Emily

This card is amazing. I've looked at it for awhile, and find all the details just awesome. Each time I take another look I see another great detail. tfs

I cannot tell you how much I LOVE this card!!! The dp is awesome, but not as much as your stitching! All of those buttons just make my heart sing! You should frame this one, girly!
