Sending Smiles - Timeless Tueday #213


Hi everyone!

This week's Timeless Tuesday challenge is brought to you by Maki and she is challenging you to do a little sewing! Don't sew? That's ok! Faux stitching is completely acceptable. :)


For my card, I decided to whip out my colored pencils and do some coloring without gamsol or other blending agent. I think it turned out ok, but I think I will be grabbing my Copics when it comes to coloring! :)  I was going for that soft feel, but without a blending agent, it took a little bit to achieve the look.


I used this month's release of Tulips for Friends and coloring in the single tulip in the set.  Once colored, I stamped the sentiment from the set directly over the tulip using Memento Black ink.  It was then cut out using MFT's Die-namic die while I used MME dp and sewed around the edges.  I did do some zig zag stitching down the middle where the two dp's  meet, but it ended up getting covered up with my dots.  I finished off the card by popping up the image and adding some rhinestone flourishes.

We hope you join us this week in the challenge, but in the meantime, be sure to check out the other wonderful creations from the Timeless Tuesday Team! Thanks for stopping by!
