ATC exchange- Sewing

 My ATC group meets monthly and each month we have a theme.  This month the theme was stitching/sewing.

 This is my 1-4-1 card- we make an additional card- a special card- for an exchange before the rest of the cards.  I sewed on eyelet fabric, added lace and ribbon and a collage image.
 This is how I add my ID on the back- I saftey pin it on:

Here are the rest of the ATC's I made:

 Rogue Redhead stamp- colored with Copics and Gold metallic thread sewn around the edges. This fits the Dress Down challenge to use just one designer paper at Rogue Redhead stamps challenge HERE

 Rogue Redhead stamp, sentiment Create with TLC-  paper pieced gloves.
