Happy Thursday! I was able to finish a card for this week's Make it Mondays challenge during nap-time today. I tried to make it very elegant:
Ha, can you tell I love the Damask Design pp? For this card, I spent a lot of time adding the machine sewing. To make sure that the stitching around the mat stack 1 die negative looks neat, I turned the wheel of the sewing machine by hand. This way I was able to control it better. The background is stamped with Textstyle 1.
The butterfly is die-cut from the last layer, then I added layers of butterflies that I die-cut from vellum.
Love this reverse layering technique using dies! You'll find the video about it here.
I hope your day is beautiful! Thanks for visiting!
Hugs and Love,
Vanessa
