Another of the fabulous sets from the Greetery's Handiwork release, is this 
vintage sewing machine. Love at first sight!


I 'borrowed' a few of the designers inspirations for my friendship card, like  Dawn's 
triple fabric pile,  and  Kelly's use of the frame embroidery hoop. 'Sew" much
inspiration to  love during release week!


This was made for a dear friend that loves to quilt.


Crazy for the stitched sentiments too!
Have a great day!

SSS Monday Challenge


The Monday challenge at Simon Says Stamp is to "Create Some Magic".

I have a book I've read to my grandchildren at least 100 times called, "The Magic Sewing Machine".
It's a charming story about 2 orphan children who are left a sewing machine that turns out to be magic.
With it, they take over and banish the wicked orphanage headmaster, find her gold coins, and 
save all the orphan children. Lovely colors and illustrations.
My card celebrates the children's book.


Tim Holtz' Sewing Blueprint, gold silver and copper embossed on PTI's card stock.
I fussy cut the machine and popped it up over a stamped image.
Background is a stencil of PTI's Cover Plate: Cross Quilt that was ink sponged in
Harvest Gold, Orange Zest, Terracotta Tile, New Leaf and Blueberry. (PTI).
The button was solid green, I embossed the center in gold  to look like the gold coins in the story.




You can find the the SSS Challenge here, but you better hurry, ends on Sunday!
