The
Play Date Cafe challenge this week is Shabby Chic. Since I love me some Shabby I just had to participate in this challenge. Before my love of paper crafting, I had a long love affair with FABRIC!!! For this challenge I pulled out some silk, cotton and lace. Using a pattern I purchased called "Six in the City Bag," I sewed this charming bag! It's just perfect for a diaper bag, and I have just the new mama in mind. I also made a matching card using some of the elements from the bag. Together I think this will make a great gift! Another great challenge from the Play Date Cafe. I hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day shared with love ones. Have a great week.
The Sleepy Stamper,
For my card I used a Kraft card stock and the same trim I used behind the rose on my bag. Using only the edge of the lace trim on either side of the patterned paper gives it an edge punched look. To help tie the card in with the bag I stitched on both edges of my patterned paper. The rose on my card is from Prima, and the bow is made from seam binding purchased from the
Memrie Mare. I framed the sentiment with a tattered angles alphabet frame which I distressed with Ranger's Antique Linen ink.
WOW!!!!!!!!Vraiment Magnifique!!!!!
