It is my sister's birthday today, she is turning 24 and of course I had to make a card for her. How could I not???I am making (well, I will certainly be receiving help!!!) her a handbag from either denim jeans or fabric of her choice in this style (minus the flower)
I already have a marlo bloom handbag and it is reversible. I was unsure for what fabric choices she wanted hence my stalling and/or if she'd prefer the denim jeans handbag made from kid size Quiksilver jeans (none less for my fashionista icon sister!)
Obviously her card had to feature a handbag and I decided to go with the denim look. It also falls into a challenge on our team forum of creating something with the big shot. If anyone would like more information about joining my team and being part of a larger forum, contact me.
Did you know the big shot can cut through a variety of materials? Obviously, fabric is one of them as I have woven some real strips of denim to create the handbag along with using the "faux denim" technique.
Materials list:
Stamps: On your birthday, tiny tags
Cardstock: More mustard, brocade blue, night of navy
Ink: Chocolate chip, more mustard, bashful blue, whisper white, not quite navy, night of navy, brocade blue
Accessories: big shot (autumn/winter mini catalogue), top note die (autumn/winter mini catalogue), 1/4" real red & night of navy grosgrain ribbon, medium jewellery tag punch (autumn/winter mini catalogue), linen thread
Other: Scrapbook paper from my stash
wow that is an amazing card Ros - you are so clever. Never heard of Marlo Bloom but I have heard of Quiksilver jeans - lol Brilliant as usual - well done.
