A Red Rose

Hello everyone,

My American seam binding arrived!!! Although still a lot to learn on how to create stunning shabby chic bows and effects I have lots of fun creating cards with these seam binding. When I saw this amazing seam binding on cards featuring on blogs of so many card makers around the world I was hooked – the vintage look absolutely stunned me. The seam binding have a lovely sheer look and touch. It dye easily with glimmer mist, distress inks, Smooch, etc to match your project, scrapbook page or card. If you are a South African crafter  with a postal address in South Africa I can offer 5 meter bundles of this gorgeous seam binding for sale. If you are interested please email me at breytenbach.amelia@gmail.com for more information on how to buy. The colours available are white, cream and rose petal – I have limited stock at this stage.  Please check back regularly as there is more colours to come soon.

For my card today I used my Go Kreate dies to create something different that the usually square card – the challenge at OSAAT for this week is Anything but square. I love the script designer paper and don’t want to cover it with another layer of paper so I stamped the bird silhouette directly on the script paper. I finished off with leaves, lace, white seam binding and a Prima rose. The sentiment is from Whimsy stamps.

I entered the card for the following challenges:

• One Stich at a Time Challenge #50 (ends 02/27) – Anything but Square
• The Play Date Cafe Challenge PDCC#69 (ends 02/23) – Colour Red, Green and Black
• Prairie Fairy Fridays #46 (ends 02/25) – It’s all in the Fine Print
• Crazy 4 Challenges C4C75 (ends 02/26) – Use Dies to Create your Card

 

 I used the following to create the card:

• White and black cardstock
• Script designer paper
• Whimsy Friendship Ticket sentiment
•  Si Designs by Amanda stamp “Bird”
• Go Kreate die “XXL Square Frame Frilly #3”
• Marianne Design Creatables “LR0150”
• Prima flower
• Stickles “Icicle”
• White seam binding
• Guipere lace
• Wax cord

Thanks for stopping by and looking at my card. Have a wonderful week and check back in the next few days if you want to see more cards with this gorgeous seam binding.

Greetings and keep well,

Amelia
