Patchwork Pieces Quilt

Happy Saturday, peeps!  Dana is having Cassidy's birthday party today, so this will be short & sweet! My friend Shawn saw a cool card using the Crafting With You set and a "quilt" made from paper! You can see it here, by Ramblin' Stamper!  SO pretty! I thought I had saved it but couldn't find it, so I went ahead and created my own version of something similar using the Patchwork Pieces dies and some Blueberry Bushel gingham DSP. So here we go:

I combined the DSP pieces with Basic White and after adhering them all to a scrap piece of paper, I ran the "quilt" through the Cane Weave embossing folder and matted it on a piece of Boho Blue cardstock. I stamped the sewing machine in Blueberry as well, and diecut a little scrap with the other die in the set to create my "fabric" to fit in the sewing machine.  

I stamped the sentiment and added some spools and buttons in Blueberry and Crumb Cake.  The accessories in this set are so much fun!  I wish I had used the smaller sentiment like Pat did because I feel like my card is a bit bottom-heavy, with both the sewing machine AND the sentiment panel, but this was sort of a trial/prototype, so I am not going to sweat over it!  

I have a couple more ideas for these dies and set, so be on the lookout! I have so many ideas with all the new things coming out in the catalog, I don't really think there are enough days in the month to get them all done!  But I'm going to give it a try! 

While we're in a "blueberry" mood:

For Cassidy's birthday, she and her friend went to Sky Zone for "Glow Night"....looks like fun!

I don't know who that crazy guy is in the background!  

Thanks for popping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

 Happy Friday, everyone!  Hope you have some fun plans for the weekend!  My friend Shawn lent me her Crafting With You bundle and I had some fun today playing with it!  I used the Atlantic Hearts sketch:

and I paired the set with some pretty Inked Botanicals DSP!  Here we go:

This is perhaps a little busier than my usual card, but there are so many fun dies in the set, I just felt I had to play with them!  After stamping the sentiment on a piece of Pool Party cardstock, I created the embroidery hoop image, stamping the flowers in Calypso Coral, then adding some extras in Pool Party and Petal Pink:

I diecut some spools and buttons, along with some of the other hearts and flowers to create all my little embellishments:

Eek! So fun to play with!  Thanks, Shawn!  And thank you for popping in today--enjoy it and be blessed!
