Well did you all remember to wash you face in the dew this morning? Ah well, neither did I, so the wrinkles are still there!
I've something a wee bit different for you today.
When I saw the current challenge over at Anything But a Card was "ATCs", I knew immediately that I wanted to have a go at making a fabric ATC.
I'm also entering into the brand new challenge blog Our Creative Corner - "Anything Goes"
I've gone for a very simple design but if I have time I may do another one and have a go at fabric stamping and inking.
I started with a calico base then I added the semi circle (which is actually a light gold fabric).
I then stitched around the semi circle with a variegated thread.
The foliage is from the TH pinecone die and I stitched around this too to define it a bit.
The butterfly is also TH.
I then added some tiny circles punched from copper sheet.
I then zig zagged around the edge in the variegated thread.
Okay that's me for tonight, thanks a lot for popping in.
Take care
Suze xx

Now that would be too much of a faff for me...well ok sewing in a straight line would be to much for me! but this is a brilliant take on the challenge ! x

Wow Suze!! This is beautiful. I know how fiddly stitching round the die cut would be and it's amazing. Love the variegated colour of the stithing and HURRAH for using calico - one of my favourite things! Thanks so much for joining us at Our Creative Corner this time.

I'm back wearing a different hat (it should have a 'D' on it because I'm miles behind with comments due to all kinds of problems - sorry!)
To have made this ATC size is nothing short of a miracle and only people who sew will appreciate that. A wonderful little piece Suze.
