Papertake Weekly - Needles and Pins

Hey everyone! Happy Tuesday! It's time for a new challenge at Papertake Weekly, and this week Dawny is challenging you to use pins/needles and/or sewing. AND we are sponsored by our very own Mary and Andrea from The Ribbon Girl!!! So some lucky person is going to wn an awesome prize (sure wish I could play!!) I chose the sewing option for my card and here is what I've got to show you today.


I used one the Old Hollywood images from Kraftin' Kimmie, and her name is Marilyn. She's stamped with Memento ink onto Cryogen White paper and then colored with Copic markers. The frame, flourish, sentiment banner, and border were cut with the Silhoette. Papers are Graphic 45 matted with Bzzill cardstock, and the yummy flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The sentiment comes with Marilyn.


Please be sure to pop over to Papertake Weekly to check out all my teamies amazing creations, and then we'd love it if you'd grab your paper and glue and play along with us! Thanks for stopping by to seem me today and hope to see you back again soon! Hugs, Sharon
