Hi friends! I hope you're having a great weekend so far. Hubby and I got some Christmas shopping done yesterday, and by the time we were done I was exhausted! But it feels good to have gotten a good chunk of it done.
Over in the Moxie Fab World, Cath spent a week celebrating the release of the new Paper Crafts special issue, 365 Cards. Although I can't find it locally just yet, I thought I'd play along with one of the challenges issued during last week's festivities. For the Celebrating Hobbies Challenge, you can make a card to give to someone during National Sewing Month. While my card isn't specifically for that occasion, it definitely has a sewing theme!
I wanted to use a fall-ish color palette, so I chose Papertrey Ink's Summer Sunrise, Dark Chocolate, and Aqua Mist. I used PTI's Quilter's Sampler to stamp a quilt on a square of Rustic Cream cardstock and colored it with Copic markers. I used the Linen & Canvas impression plate to give the panel the look of fabric, then stitched it to a Dark Chocolate mat.
A get well sentiment from the set was stamped on a double ended banner and embellished with a pair of scissors, also from Quilter's Sampler, that I cut out by hand.
All supplies from Papertrey Ink unless noted
Cardstock: Summer Sunrise, Dark Chocolate, Rustic Cream
Stamps: Quilter's Sampler
Ink: Chocolate Chip (Stampin' Up!), Copic markers
Tools: Double ended banner die, Linen & Canvas impression plate
Accessories: thread
I hope you enjoy the rest of your day! Thanks for stopping by!

Too totally cute!! Love the colour combo and well done cutting out those scissors!
I love the warm color palette here! All those panels together almost look like stained glass. Really beautiful.
I absolutely love it when you break out the sewing machine for your cards (like the one I got to see in person yesterday, oh my dear goodness, thank you!) It adds such a lovely texture. Your card is beautiful, and perfect for the challenge!
