A sew fun Christmas card


I went crazy with Gena K's Christmas challenge with sewing on the card.I used a irregular stitching line to go around the mats and card itself.I did this twice to really make it stand out. I used the sketch from Repeat Impressions a new blog I checked out a friend of mine Karen had a card posted on. It looked like a fun sketch. I hope you like my take on my Christmas card with sewing on it. Maybe you will have to get out your sewing machine too.
Happy sewing!

A Christmas Challange card




I was inspired to do this card by a Gena K Christmas card challenge that you had to have a shaped card.So I used my nestabilities to make this tree card that fit into a slash folder.
1- I stamped the houses on a scrap of ivory paper and then colored it with copic markers.
2- I then die cut 2 tree's and the folder.I took the one tree I had cut and then used a oval nestability to cut a window in the card.
3- I put the houses behind the window and sewed them in place around the oval opening.I used a sponge to edge the tree.
4- I embossed snowflakes on the slash folder with white embossing powder.
5- I stamped the saying and die cut it and the mat with a rectangle nestability and then attached it to the front of the folder.
