Hi! Back again with another challenge entry. The challenges at Beyond Grey and Catchy Challenges really got my creative juices flowing!
So here is another entry for Beyond Grey's BGC #27 - Fetch That Sketch
and Catchy Challenges, March Season IV
This time round I decided to make a quilted card, out of all the scraps of paper that I cannot bear to throw away.
The card size is 6 x 6 inches. I have used dark coffee brown card stock as the base. Other papers are a mix of handmade and pattern papers.
After I finished the card top with zigzag stitching, it reminded me of a small baby blanket. So I decided to make it into a baby card. Hence the baby feet on the tag.
Originally, I had planned to stamp a sentiment welcoming the new baby. But I feel the cute little feet say it all.
Now I am thinking of making similar cards in other color combinations.
Love,
Nan

Thanx Sunehra. Actually I pasted them on a piece of scrap paper and then went over the 'seams' with the stitching. Pretty similar to what I do when I quilt with fabric

ReplyDeleteThanx Ebba. The baby feet are simple enough to make; the biggest challenge is the tiny toes!
