Hi guys, This should be the last sewing card for awhile! I have to admit that every time I picked up these dies, they reminded my of days gone by, about my Mom's sewing machine when I was a kid and I just thought "vintage." The papers I picked here are no exception, if you don't like that vintage look, this may not be a card for you. I also have to admit that this is the card that I bent Mom's sewing machine needle on too. Can you see the zigzag seams between the different papers? It bent where I put the black zipper rose, that was lucky, huh! The lovely lady at Scrap and Stamp in Inverness, Florida, Vicky Turner, gave me a needle to replace my Mom's.
Wasn't that just so nice of her!
This is a great card layout to help use up some of the old scraps of decorative papers you have lying around (yes, I know we all do!). I taped them to a piece of copy paper and then sewed the zigzag lines between them. I distressed all the edges to help make it look more vintage using the edge of my scissors. I added a piece of black guipur lace and attached it to the back of the card. I tied a bow out of three pieces of black vintage ribbon, spritzed it with water and crumpled it to get a shabby chic look and attached it to my lace in the corner. I added a piece of natural twine and a black zipper
rose. Next I stamped my sentiment then cut it out of "milk" coloured card. I cut a second swatch the same size and I inked them both with antique linen while still in the die. I used one of Sam Poole's sewing stamps to stamp the swatches too, giving them both a bit of texture. I added some old buttons from my stash to the sentiment swatch. I cut the sewing machine out of black card. While still in the die, I inked it with clear perfect medium. I popped it out and embossed it with clear powder to bring out the detail on the machine. I mounted it on the second swatch. I mounted both swatches on my card at offset angles for interest. I added a few more buttons in the upper corner to complete my card. I hope you like my take on a vintage themed sewing card.
Just a quick note before I go, I am doing the POTW shows on Create and Craft this Friday the 27th beginning with the launch art noon. I hope you can tune in to watch. I have had many comments from followers of the blog outside of the UK about the shows. I just wanted to let them know that
if you aren't in the UK, you can still watch online at www.createandcraft.tv . The shows are live so you just have to work out what time it is where you live when it is noon in England! If you have any questions, just email me at americansue1@gmail.com Watch this space for some sneak peeks later this week too! All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue,
fabbbbbbb card. I love all the different papers sewn together. Thank you for all the tips you give us. I need more pennies to enable me to buy more lovely papers. I won't be able to buy the pick of the week this time as I still have to pay for the last one. Still looking forward to watching my fav demonstrator though. Have a great crafty day everyone.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
Great idea for using scraps, I have loads! Another lovely card and I will be watching on Friday for the POTW, can't wait x
Morning Sue, this card is lovely. I didnt think this set of dies was for me but I was so wrong. You amaze me with how many variations you can come up with. I too am looking forward to your POW shows on C & C.

Great card Sue, love the colour combinations and composition. Looking forward to POTW, not sure if I can buy much, but the inspiration will go down well. xxx
Good morning Sue, such a beautiful card, I love the vintage look. I didn't. Think I would have a use for these dies, but have been proven wrong so I have had to cheat and use my Robo for the machine shape. Will be watching on Friday with CC at the ready. Best wishes, Lesley x

Great Card. You're getting very good at sewing! Love, Julia xxx
It's 11:05 p.m. where I am, so I'll say "good evening, Sue." You can keep doing these sewing themed cards as long as you have ideas, as far as I'm concerned. They resonate with me, too. I'm all for using up scraps and these came together beautifully.
Thanks, too, for the info about your show. I'm going to figure out the time difference now and hope to be able to catch some of them.
Lovely card. I love the little sewing machine. I will be watching on Friday.
Morning Sue
Love this card, never get tired of the sewing ones! Must dig out my sewing machine and try using it on my cards as I don't use it for anything else! Can't wait for a peep at what you are bringing us on Friday, hope I won't like it but know there will not be much chance of that! Looks like the bank balance will be taking a hammering again! Love Jean x

Very clever and fun. My grandmother used an old singer, while my mom used a Kenmore... blast from the past, eh?
Cheers,
Debby
Hi Sue,
Another lovely sewing card and I like the way the embossing has brought out the design on the sewing machine. Now I am keen to know what is in the pipeline for this weeks POTW!!
love from Jackie D
This takes me back a long way, my Nan had an old tredle Singer sewing machine and I used to love playing on it - it did not sew but it was fun. Your card is gorgeous and the zip flower really sets it off.
This is such a lovely card.
xxx Hazel.
Morning Sue, Great card, it also reminds me of days gone by. My Mum had an old hand sewing machine on which she made absolutely everything, no electric ones in those days. Looking forward to Friday.
Love Rosemarie xx
Hi Sue,
another great card I used to sew a lot but not so much now I may pull
out my old machne and sew some cards as it adds dimension.
Nancyd x
Hi Sue - I love all your sewing themed cards (please don't stop!!)
It was this card on the show that prompted me to buy the dies - I just fell in love with it because it evoked such memories.... tfs
Hugs

Yet another beautiful card with a sewing theme. Love the stitched backing paper.
Jan
Wow Sue
What can I say another super card. The sewing machine reminds me of the Singer machine my mother had which I still have not working very well
This is lovely and definitely a good idea for scraps. I NEED that sewing machine die!! x
Hi Sue. This a true 'sewing' card. The stitched background gives an authentic patchwork feel. Like some other commentators I did not think there would be a lot of use for these dies, you are proving me wrong.
Anne x
Hi Sue, another Fabulous card, love the backing papers.

Hi Sue. Love the card. Can't wait for Friday. Will be watching your shows today as well.
Another lovely card, glad to see you are on C&C on Friday, can't wait.
Good Morning Sue
Love this vintage look with the sewing machine. Really like the way you have stitched the background papers together. I use my mums sewing machine too, for lots of different things but I've never tried stitching paper before except by hand.
The sewing machine on the card has lovely detail and always reminds me of my grandmas singer sewing machine which worked by hand and not electric. Cant wait to see whats in store for Friday. Hugs Rizwana xx
Another nice take on these dies, you have shown so many variations on a theme. How do you think of them all. Looking forward to seeing POTW and maybe some sneak previews beforehand.
Toni xx
Hi Sue, really like the patchwork-style of the background papers and the black lace and bow but I'm still undecided about the zipper roses.
Looking forward to seeing what you bring us on Friday and hoping to be able to get something this time round.
Frances
Beautiful, and quite vintage in style. I love it.

I love how you have used that zip to make a flower. I have quite a lot of bits and pieces in my sewing cabinet and you have certainly given us some ideas of what do with them. This really is a great card.
Really love these dies Sue, so versatile. If thats the last of these are we getting a peep at the new ones being released on Friday
Hello Sue,
Another fabulous card, love everything about it, so glad that I got the sewing dies. My Mum had a treadle sewing machine, and this card has brought back happy memories. Will be watching the POTW on Friday, good to see you back on our screens.
Have a lovely day.

Hi Sue another fab card i love the vintage theme,and as you say this also reminds me of when i was young my mother was great with her hands and made all our cloths on the singer machine,which i still have the base of,my sisters also loved sewing and it is still a running joke in my family,that i can noe sew a button on a shirt.My Grand mother was a Fashion desinger and ran her own buisness even though her keft hand was deformed
looking forward to seeing on T.V. Friday

Hi Sue
Fabulous card I do love the sewing elements fantastic way you have done the little sewing machine ?? did you sponge over with embossing ink whilst still in the die???
Must try this one

Oh Wow Sue, I think you left the best till last! This is my new favourite card - simply stunning and I particularly like the colouring. Must get my old Singer out and try the stitching - I might be better at stitching cards than I am dresses!
Sue x
Hi Sue, this is lovely, I really love the colours and the vintage look - the embossing on the machine is stunning. Don't think my credit card can take another potw, but I am sure I will not be able to resist a look.
thanks for the heads up.

Personally love the vintage look - can't wait until Friday :)

Good afternoon Sue,
A really lovely vintage card, I love the backing papers that you've used, the stitching on them reminds me when I first started work (well not straight away as I started out in the cutting room before learning embroidery on massive Schiffli machines and then onto the sewing floor)learning how to use a sewing machine on paper with no thread following different lines and then with the machine threaded and following a drawn circle and swirls before being let loose on the fabric!!! I remember feeling really stupid having to walk the full length of the machine floor holding pieces of paper full of tiny holes :)
Have a great day

Hello Sue, what a great card yet again, take care vanessa xx

I never tire of the versatility of the sewing dies, I really think this is great with the vintage theme, always takes me back to good times had in sewing class and halcyon days! Well done and thanks again for the ideas.
Hi Sue, another lovely sewing card which, I love. These dies are so versatile arn't they and my sewing fiends would be glad to receive this one.
Looking forward to POTW on Friday but will not be around for some of the days, never mind there is always record.
Forgot to say congrats to all the winners.
Lv Sue M xx
Another Lovely card looking forward to the shows. Hope it don't sell out before I get home from work.
Jane xx
Love this card Sue - the papers look just like pieces of material and the machine just looks so real. I thought it was a charm!! I have always put fancy buttons on my cards (thinking that they had to be!!!) however these plain buttons look absolutely great and very natural. I am dreading Friday because my husband will be moaning about the parcels AGAIN! He is convinced that the floorboards are about to give way because of the weight and amount of items.
Hugs Sue Pass xx
I just love this card Sue, the papers are wonderful, can you get them here? can't wait for a peek at the POW.
God bless

Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iPad and tested to see if it
can survive a 25 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.
My iPad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this
is completely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
