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!

    No matter what, life is better when we're crafting - and sharing, and GLOWING!
    LOve those little spools and the fabric you've quilted, LeAnne!

    I love the embossed quilt panelled background - it compliments the machine and sentiment beautifully. It's the little details too - those cotton reels and the fabric running through the machine that make this card so special.

    You totally nailed this!! I love all the little details around the sentiment, too. The piece in the sewing machine is perfect. It's actually draping like fabric would. Excellent job on this beautiful quilt card!! I wonder who had more fun at Cassidy's party ...Cass or Wayne?!? hahaha!
