FABRIC
We are talking fabric, sewing
material, things of which clothes are made, not ribbon or lace (but of course
they are welcome additions)!We are so happy to have Milk Coffee Stamps joining us again with sponsorship for you! The winner's prize is their choice of 3 Milk Coffee images! And our super sponsor also provides each of our Top 3 with an image of their choice!
My image is called Tiffany as Snow White. Isn't she a beauty? This card, however, caused me much stress and concernation. Oh, not the image; I had that ready in no time. It was the "use fabric" criteria that had me just about in tears. I ended up having to purchase some little "jelly rolls" of cloth (I didn't know that is what they are called, but a friend who sews enlightened me) in order to make my card. As it is, I used TWO fabrics (HA!).
I used black card to mat my different layers and bits of DP from my scrap bags. I am earnestly trying to use the scraps instead of cutting in to new paper all of the time. The patterned paper and the light blue were both layered with the black for contrast. I then cut a square of white card and layered that with the red fabric. Over the red, I used another piece of lovely sheer fabric that I cut from a piece that was labeled "wedding veil material." I sewed both pieces to the white card, covering all of the surface. I then popped Tiffany/Snow up slightly using foam dots, added the flowers (Recollections and WOC), and the sentiment. I also added some punched green leaves to the rose at the bottom to fill it out a little more. I folded each leaf in the center to give it more dimension before gluing it behind the rose.
