Today's oldie is a card that I have made several versions of for my crafty friends. Those that knit have a page from a knitting pattern (photocopied), quilters have a paper pieced background and "sewists" have a an image of a dress pattern! The shaker elements are sequins, beads, tiny safety pins, press studs etc. with appropriate embellishments
The sentiment inside this particular one read
"I knit, therefore I am armed with scissors, two very sharp sticks and some very strong yarn. So don't mess with me"
I'm going to have a very quiet week end to see if I can shake this cold off completely - I don't want it to end up as a naty chest infection!
Ingredients
7x7 card blank
card and knitting pattern from my stash
Tonic Circle dies
X-cut Haberdashery dies
beads and buttons etc

ReplyDeleteHi Karen,
ReplyDeletewhat a very superb card, and such a very superb design too.
This is so fab for a person that sews or kinits as it would be very much appreciated I'm sure.
I love all your crafty dies used they are fab.
