For not having much stamping on it, this card took me forever to make! First I punched a bunch of 1 1/4" squares to use as my quilt squares. Then I had to arrange them the way I wanted them. NOT an easy task! LOL I decided to make it easier on myself, I would run my entire piece of brown card stock through my Xyron machine. I adhered all the squares on the brown mat leaving a tiny border of adhesive showing. I dipped all the edges in Dazzling Diamonds glitter. I then stitched between all the quilt squares and all the way around the edge.
I still had my polyshrink out and it was calling my name so I made a thread and scissor charm out of it. :) I tied it on the kiwi ribbon with a piece of thread. The sentiment was stamped, die cut with my Nesties and adhered to the quilt.
When I showed my hubby the card, his response was, "WOW, that was a lot of work!" Awwwww I'll take that as a compliment! LOL
I don't think I'll take up REAL quilting...
OMG Jody this is so beautiful! The colors and it really looks like a quilt. Love the little scissors and thread spool.
ReplyDeleteJody I love this card. The colors are great together! I love all the quilt cards and things we can do with the quilt stamp set! (I'm Love quilts)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the idea about running thru the zyron...didn't even think of that. Love the polyshrink scissors and thread, they are adorable!
