Welcome to Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich Company's
June Blog Hop!
Today's set, I'm in Stitches, is a fun one, whether you sew or not. My CAS card today features the vintage electric sewing machine. I actually learned to sew on a machine that looked like this, except that it was a treadle machine. (That will tell you how old I am!!!) I stamped the image and embossed it with Detail Black embossing powder and trimmed it with a gold pen. Then I stamped the sentiment and added the gold line stickers. Voila -- I was done!
I decided to make a quilt card for my second card today, using papers from the Basic Grey Nook and Pantry paper pack. I think we probably all had that tomato and strawberry accessory for our sewing needs. After I constructed the "quilt," I embossed it with the Square Lattice embossing folder. The sentiment and tomato are popped up on pop dots.
