Today I am sharing two cards made with this set.
I used to do far more with my sewing machine than I do today. Cardmaking has taken up all my creative space and my previous sewing place - the dining room is usually full of hubby's work papers etc. etc.

Today I am sharing two cards made with this set.
I used to do far more with my sewing machine than I do today. Cardmaking has taken up all my creative space and my previous sewing place - the dining room is usually full of hubby's work papers etc. etc.
When I first started sewing we all used machines similar to this made by Singer or Bernina. You can see that I do have something a little more modern - wedding gift from Hubby so it is still 33 years old this year.
My second card uses another couple of images from the set and as you can see I used embossing powder on the scissors.
This is the full list of design team members who have projects to share so have a hop round to see what they have done with this lovely set. Tammylee is next.
These are soooooo cool!!!! Awesome work Janine!!!!

ReplyDeleteSew nice. Like the photo opp of the sewing machine with card. Wish I knew how to sew. My mother was a wonderful seamstress. I took Home Ec sewing in high school.

ReplyDeleteJanine,
ReplyDeleteI really like both of your cards - they're just lovely. My hubby bought me a brand new Singer last Christmas with 150 different stitches programmed. However, I've never used a sewing machine, but wanted to learn how to stitch on my cards - and I haven't used it yet - but I do keep dusting it!
