Morning Everyone,
When I was searching through my digi images for something last week I came across this Bugaboo image and thought it would be a fun image to colour.
I had a look through my mountains of papers and found some brightly coloured pieces and so coloured my monsters with copics to match. They were cut out with a notched square die and matted with black and then I had this mad idea to get my sewing machine out and use that around the edges. Normally when I want stitches I sew by hand, but I fancied having a go at zig zag stitch across the joins of the papers. I hadn't even used my machine for zig zag before so had to have a practice on some scrap. They worked really well so I was quite pleased for a first attempt. My straight stitching went a bit wonky though, especially when I reached the corners, but they don't look too bad.
I finished it off with a few enamel dots, a stitched banner die for the sentiment and a Sending die from SSStamp.
Typing this on Sunday night after watching Emma Raducanu get beat in the tennis, which was a bit disappointing as she had played so well up to now.
I would like to enter:
What a fun card Lynne, so bright and happy and certainly brings a smile to the face.
