I made this card for the 4 Crafty Chicks challenge #210. Although I missed the deadline I thought I'd show it anyway. The brief was Real/Faux Stitching.
A while ago, on a whim, I bought a very discounted We R Memory Keepers Sew Easy with several piercing attachments. I used the crisscross attachment along the left edge, but then I couldn't be bothered to actually sew it, so I did some faux stitching instead.
The dress form stamp was another impulse buy. I tried to shadow stamp the image in the background, then stamped a clear image on white card, which I cut out and layered right at the centre.
The sentiment came from a Tilly Daydream paper pack with a stitchy theme. I faux stitched around the edge then made tiny snips all the way around to give the effect of frayed material.
The card looked a little bare so I coloured part of the stamped image and stuck a matching organza ribbon flower on the side. In hindsight I probably should have matched the red from the sentiment instead of using pink.
