Beyond Grey Challenges#20-Sticth It!!

If you have noticed my sidebar you will see I made it to the Top 3 at BGC #18....and as a result was offered a chance to be their GDT....so here I am with the GDT post and my creation for the challenge...

This week at Beyond Grey Challenge, its Sew Happy Stitching Challenge....all you are to do is have some real stitching (Hand or Machine) on your card /LO....super easy!!!

And here is what I made......

Keeping in mind the season I thought of a more contemporary  design .....and am not a stitching person at all except for a few projects I did at school and some totes and treat bags !!!

The flowers are cut outs from a pattern paper and stuck and some popped up on dimensionals....a self adhesive fabric tape to make more colorful......and a sweet sentiment to match the design!!!

The trees are hand stitched (back stitch done with brown embroidery threads) and the red bling is added to signify leaves.....

 I personally love the array of colors that the card brings out and my first attempt with stitching on paper!!!

Another angle....

Do visit the BGC blog and see what the other DT members have done and leave them some love!!!

It a 10 minuter again!!!

Last time I could not take part in the Pretty Pink Posh-10 minute craft dash as I didnt have the colours in the colour palette they provided but am happy that this time am in !!! yayayaya....

 

 
My card took me 9mins 42 secs to be precise....have a look...

I took DCWV printed cards which had the required color palette ....cut a brustro to size and distressed it with yellow ink....and stamped the swirl in green....then stamped the mask image on a separate brustro and fussy cut it...(the cutting  and distressing chewed up my maximum time)....popped it up with on a dimensional ...added a self adhesive fabric tape and a little self adhesive bling...and stamped a sentiment!!! 

Like the last time I loved the process of this speedy card and was so happy with the outcome....this card is for a friend who plans to have a mask party.....(need to replicate this in bulk...phew!!!)

A closer look!

This ten minute craft dash has inspired me to make a lot of cards in the recent times...and its been all fun projects which I shall share one by one....Thanks Pretty Pink Posh !!!

Reading Time.....Fabric Bookmarks

This was something really new for me...a fabric bookmark....I tried it for the first time for the Swap Central India Bookmark Swap ..as promised will post the swap pictures and do a post on that too soon.....but till then I replicated the fabric bookmark I sent for the swap in two different colors....So have a look

The top flowers are felt die cuts which are stitched together and stuck with the help of a hot glue gun to the base fabric....

 Closer look at the bookmarks....

 The below ribbon has been stitched on all three sides and made into a small pocket.....and then I have taken a Cardstock and stamped "Back to School" image on it and inserted it ...it can be removed and any other note card ....gift card ...or any other sentiment card can be inserted...

 I hope you like what I have done!!! Am submitting this for the Incy Wincy Designs-Make a Bookmark Challenge
