Here is my 1st card

 

 

 I chose a very simple design.  I stamped my image from the Casual Comfort stamp set by CAS-ual Fridays Stamps.  I used ink in Pacific Point and stamped it 3 times without re-inking my stamp.  Using a Perfect Pearls Mist in Turquoise I spritzed it all over the card front.  I then cut the Casual Trees die in Deep Blue, Light Blue and Pale Blue card stocks.  I layered the cuts over my stamped images.

 



 

Stamping my sentiment from Wonderful Words in Black Licorice ink.

 

 

My 2nd card

 

 

I created this card in the exact same manner, only using shades of Pink.  I also used Glimmer Mist in Crimson (apparently I had a wee bit of a clog).

 

I may make a few more of these simple little cards and place them in a box for gift giving.

 

Thanks so much for popping in!

 

Enjoy~~

Sew Easy

 

You must use some type of stitching on your card.  It could be from a sewing machine, or a stitched die of some sort, or even creating a hand stitched look using a white gel pen, the choice is yours.  Please label what you have used for my poor old eyes......don't make me put on my 'crafting glasses'.

Here is my first project:

 

 

I used the beautiful CAS-ual Fridays Stamps, Curtis Background

 and Casual Comfort, and matching die set, Casual Trees.   This is a double layered Stitched Tag.  Inks in Pirouette Pink and Black Licorice.  Gingham Ribbon, Baker's Twine and Pink Adhesive Rhinestones as accents.

 

2nd Project

 

 

 

My background was created using the same stamp, Curtis Background  and ink colors.  Once mounted on black card stock I whipped out my Janome Mini sewing machine and stitched all around the edges in a deep pink thread.  Sentiment from the 3 In A Row stamp set.  I also made chipboard hearts using the matching Tic Tac Toe die.  Half a Doily, Heart Button, Baker's Twine and Pink Adhesive Rhinestone for accents.
