Topic: Paper Embroidery
Both of the paper embroidery groups I belong to issued a challenge to make a baby card. I chose different patterns for them and non-traditional colors to make them uni-sex.
Fot the first I chose some of my favorite dotted cardstock and stitched a onesie in purple. I happened to have a matching purple bow from a swap and I used Liquid Pearls for the snaps. A purple tone-on-tone makes the card base and a sentiment is created with a gold peel-off sticker.
The second card is stitched with cream thread on cream cardstock. I added text with a white gel pen. A border of tan sets it off from the textured white background (recycled from a commercial greeting card). Another tan border and a white card basecomplete the layering. I used distress ink in 'old paper' to enhance the texture of the white paper and tone the edges of thebaby panel.
Ready for the babies...
