Over at Moxie Fab World, Cath posted a challenge to use fabric on cards. She asked us to be innovative. I know we are all making fabric flowers, but I have not seen anyone using fabric stiffener to give the flowers structure. I researched homemade stiffener and decided that combining water and Mod Podge would do the job. I made a "tutorial" and will post that later this afternoon.
Back to the card. I used the sketch from 2Sketches4You and borrowed elements from Mojo Monday and Cardabilities, specifically, the flower placement and the twine placement. This works for the Creative Belli challenge because I used a brad and had to punch a hole to insert the brad. Plus, I will submit this for the PaperCraft's Magazine Gallery Idol open call.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out my latest creation. I'd love to hear from you so leave a comment or ask a question.
Happy Day!
