Stars & Stamps - Sketch 16


Sketch of the week! This is an easy one, I already did it! Hooray! I rec'd this sketch after the last blog hop for OWH and here is what I made with it. . . to use a phrase from Sandy, I had been hoarding this denim paper for a really long time because I love it! It looks like jeans, but it's really paper. I stitched it down to some dark blue cardstock using a yellowish-brown jean-stitching colored floss, and made "patches" out of some other fun fabric-looking paper - I stitched these down with other different colored floss. The "I MISS YOU" sentiment is made from some rub-on letters and I added some random buttons and snaps for the centers of the flowers - finally I also stitched on that little red tag and I wrote on it with a white gel pen - it's folded in half like a real "levi's" tag so it sticks up. Those flowers are also curled so that they stick up. . . what a fun sketch to work with! Thanks for stopping by!

  6. Love that denim paper! I've been hoarding some ribbon I bought awhile ago too! I'm afraid if I use it, I'll never find more of it ever again!!
