Dazzling Diva Challenge #6


Hi friends.  This week's Dazzling Diva Challenge over at Monica's blog (Add a Little Dazzle) is to incorporate stitching onto your card. 


I was not only inspired by the photo but also by Laura Bassen's awesome card here.  I used the Scarlet red metal sheet, embossed it with the vintage wallpaper embossing folder by SU!   I used the heart framelits on my vellum cardstock to make my window.  The sentiment is embossed with white embossing powder. 

I wasn't sure if I would be able to stitch through the metal sheets so I tested it on a small scrap piece and it worked just like stitching on paper.  Cool!!!  The vellum is stitched onto the metal sheet and the top layer.  I also used my Lil' Inkers stitched rectangle for more stitching elements on my card base. 

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

  8. Wow - you must have one amazing sewing machine! My mom's old Singer would stitch through a yard stick! My newer model Singer struggles with denim....

    Your card is stunning - beautifully elegant with just the right amount of glam provided by the embossed metal! Perfectly embossed image too. Seriously gorgeous :)
