Sewing Room

Evening all

I hope you are all well on this very wet day........ when will the rain stop and its so cold.

Todays card is something very different no colouring! I wanted to try out one of the Tim Holtz dies that I had for Christmas and this is the result. I embossed the mannequin after cutting it out as it looked to bear without. I then out thread round the bobbin to make it look authentic.

The tape round the mannequin is ribbon that i got from a craft shop, was not sure what I would do with it when i brought it, but I knew I would find a use.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes

Items used:

Papers from stash
Tim Holtz Die
Thread from stash

  9. Oh this is lovely! I love the embossing folder you've used on the tailor's dummy, and the added tape and thread finished it off beautifully. Thanks for joining in with our "Emboss It" challenge over at the Craft-Room, and good luck.
