The Creative Belli Challenge is to use sewing on your card- you do not sew? Well, any sewing theme will work......think seamstress (stitching, buttons, seam tape, pins etc.)
I love to sew on cards, so that is what I did!
I used the Midnight Madness Sketch and a digital image, sentiment and digi paper freebies from Create with TLC. I colored the image with Copics, added highlight with the Copic Spica pen. I texturized the rug a touch with blending solution for a little texture. I used a Stampin Up Sizzix flourish and flower punch that I have had for ages and has not been used. I also dug out some embellishments from Gina K that I bough at least 3-4 yrs ago...and used them in the center of the flowers. The flowers were scrunched up and crumpled then rubbed over with Mustard SU ink. I then spritzed the distressed flowers with Yellow Glimmer Mist.
The Spirit of the Belli is to use your Old and Forgotten embellishments- so take a look at your stash and come join us by going to the BELLI BLOG and linking your project.
