Sew Special





I had a recent visit from Nerina http://nerinasserendipity.blogspot.com/ @ my blog and she suggested I played at The Shabby Tea Room. Go visit her, her work is amazing! The challenge was to work with embossing , it could be dry or heat, I used both.
With the embossing folders from the Cuttlebug I embossed the background, then I stamped and embossed the image, including the needle and thread from Crafty Secrets. Of course I couldn't help but visit Kazan, it was her sketch this week, and I used it as the inspiration for my wall hanging. I may try and post this again, because there is pink and acqua in the backgrounds and I see neither
This did photograph all bright and cheery, the way it is! All the way to the Citycrafter some like it HOT and RED!
