Sew Thankful

Hi guys,  how's this for a really sweet and quick sewing card?  The background was embossed with the So Trendy embossibility folder.  I cut a border using the new edgeability insert with the scalloped cutting edge.  I dyed some white American seam binding using tumbled glass and crushed olive distress inks.  I did this twice to get the colour a bit darker.  You need to dry it completely then use more ink swiped on to your craft mat and spritzed with water.  I wanted a shabby chic look to the ribbon and bow so I scrunched it as I dried it to achieve this.  I cut a dressform and a pin cushion and a sewing machine using the  Nina Brackett sewing element dies.  I inked through the die to bring out the details on the dressform and the pin cushion.  The sewing machine was the leftover piece from another card I made where I used the negative piece.  I stamped my sentiment on a tag and inked the edges.  I attached a button with some Bakers Twine to it and added it to my bow.  I added some pearly swirlies and paper pierced the edge to complete the card.  Are these dies growing on you too?  All for now, Sue x
