Terracotta Butterfly!


This is the first card I made when I got the scallop die and Background Basics: Tin Type delivered.  I had never really used Terracotta Tile, but I love it.  My stitching is a bit small, so I already adjusted that for next time.  I hardly ever sew on my cards, and I need to do that more often.  This card feels like it is missing something, but oh well, I already gave it away!

Thanks for visiting!

Supplies: (all Papertrey Ink unless noted)
Cardstock: Vintage Cream, Terracotta Tile, Dark Chocolate
Ink:  Dark Chocolate, Terracotta Tile, Tea Dye Duo
Stamps: Butterfly Dreams, Background Basics: Tin Type, sentiment from Wishing You
Other: Terracotta Tile buttons, Rustic Twine, random thread

Pretty card. I see you also used the new felt from PTI. I do not sew enough either and will have to start soon too.

Very nice, Lee Anne. The TT goes perfectly with the brown. I especially like the Tin Type background.

Lee Anne this is a really nice card. I love the little butterflies stamped on the tin type. It really adds interest to see the tin type through the butterflies. The stitching looks great, like a border for the scallop.

It's not missing a thing Lee Anne! I like it just the way it is.

Oh, I love that small stitching! I goes so well with the dots from the Tin Type pattern. Also, I don't think there's anything missing, Lee Anne! Your card is simply beautiful!!
