Families are like Quilts ..... at Sugar Creek Hollow!

This image really made my  heart smile when I saw it!  My family truly is very close knit and we are much like a quilt so this was not only fun to work with and create a card around, but holds special meaning as well :)

And it can also be yours!  Sugar Creek Hollow and their DT have been busy this week showing you a preview of these stamps.  The challenge was to use all 3 of these images in ONE CARD - two is easy, but three poses a bit more of a challenge ;)

Today I have two different cards to preview for you - post is long, so make sure to scroll way, way down!   The first one is a flip card, created by paper piecing the stamped image.  What a labor of love!  But I truly enjoyed making this one - full of detail and richness.  I also added the pearls by hand since it seemed like something was missing (though pearls are not so common on quilts).




For my second card, I used the quilt image again but printed it out onto the dsp.  Then I ran it thorough my cuttlebug and folder to give it texture and the "sewn" lines though-out.  I love love how this one came out, too.  I added some tiny little threaded lace to the back of the quilt and as it's cut, the ends instantly frayed - I guess it gives it character, lol!  If anyone has any tips on how to stop fraying without using glue or glaze (tried both!), Plmk! 


Thanks for looking and be sure to stop by SCH and see some of the stamps being previewed for the Grand Opening March 1st :)
Blessings!
