Where DID five years go? FIVE! Can you believe I’ve been posting the Ways to Use it Challenge since the very beginning WT01 challenge on Splitcoaststampers? I’ve taken a few sick and vacation days but for the most part, I’ve posted every Thursday. Now that’s something to celebrate!
In honour of this birthday/anniversary, I thought today’s challenge should be on a birthday theme. Let’s make some fun birthday cards, invitations, gifts, birthday layouts…whatever you wish. Have fun with the challenge here.
{make a wish}
ok. I’ll be the first to admit this card didn’t quite go the way I wanted. I ended up not having time to make another as I’d committed to hubby that I WOULD get those taxes done yesterday. My sewing machine needle broke after I’d started stitching and the only one I had left was an heirloom winged needle. This works great on cotton fabric with an enterdeux stitch as you WANT large holes but it truly looks a little bizarre in paper. Sigh. It is what it is.
Quick Tip: Make SURE you have an extra needle on hand! lol
But anyways…it’s bright and fun and I got to try out stamping on this cool wood paper. Super fun to work with!
