Hello! Thank you for stopping by. The latest revisited sketch is up at Tuesday Morning Sketches and this one is my favorite pick. It's a sketch by Debbie and it's just such a classic sketch that you can do so much with it.
My card features the Creative Pastimes Collection die set. You can find here. I love this set, I haven't played with it as much as I want to yet. I have so many ideas and so little time.
Knitting isn't my thing but it's my sister's fiber hobby! Next card will have a crochet hook - that'll be more me! Anyway, I absolutely love the yarn balls in this die set. I started the card with a Kraft card base. Then I used a piece of decorative paper, also from Tonic Studios called Spring Meadows which matches the highly coveted Sea Salt Green Craft Perfect card stock (it's been sold out for months!). I did use Sea Salt Green for the matting layer and for the yarn. The knitting needles are cut from Brushed Black card stock from Spellbinders, the tag and sentiment are from Tonic Studio kit Delicate Decor gift box. The little stitched border piece is from Stitched Borders Piercing Dies set from Brutus Monroe.
I am so pleased with how this notecard turned out. I want to make more! Did you know it's almost easier to make two cards at once than just one at a time? Try it sometime!
I think one of my next projects with this set is a mini album. I thought it would be a great way to catalog projects either my sister or I made that we give as gifts. If it happens to be a favorite pattern, maybe adding a pocket to store the pattern in. Hmm....
Well, I hope to see you over at the TMS blog joining in. Leave the team some love!
4 Encouraging Thoughts:
Gorgeous. I like all the textures of the trim, embossing, and the yarn. Perfect card for the knitter. Yes, I do make 2 or more cards with the same supplies. I already have the supplies out so may use a different design but the same papers.
Great colors, great dies👍🤩 congrats
Happy day
I love those dies and think your mini album to catalog projects is a great idea! I like knitting and crochet but haven't knitted for years. Do be sure to take pics of your projects!! I have regrets for not doing that. Cute cute card and I'm looking forward to seeing what you make with the crochet hook!
This is absolutely wonderful!! LOVE the dies!!
(Your creations are terrible for my crafting budget! I want everything I see you create! LOL)
