IBSIC #16........A Sketch.


Hello, I'm back today with this week's Inspired by Stamping Inspiration Challenge and this week Joanna has designed this gorgeous sketch for us.


Isn't this sketch pretty ? I decided to make a large handmade flower for the focal point and as I used an old dressmaker pattern, I thought I'd use the tape measure ribbon and the Cross Stitch stamp set, so it all ties in with sewing. I hand cut the leaves out from a piece of sheer crinkle ribbon and stitched across the middle.



Supplies
Stamps-Cross Stitch
Papers- Pink Paislee Sweetness
Pretties- East of India tape ribbon, flower made with dressmaker patterns, buttons, twine.
Tools- Paper Artsy flower die, Martha Stewart Lace Border punch.

I hope you'll join us this week, we love looking at your creations.
