Dressmakers Corner



Seem to be stuck in the doldrums again recently and even though I have lots of new stash I  can't get motivated.  To give myself a kick up the  ********  I thought I would try and enter a few challenges and this is my card for Cardz4galz challenge which is Sew and Sew.  Oxide ink background ,stamps from Inkylicious and Indigo blu,free border stamp with Card Making magazine,tape measure and cotton card a magazine freebie. The dressmakers corner stamp is from a very old SeeDees stamp set.anyone remember them. I had forgotten I had any until I unearthed a box full of them in the back of the cupboard, never know what else is hiding in there ! I'd also like to enter

Eclecticellapu challenge - Touch of pink and/purple

  9. Your background is incredible! I love the whole card, but that background with the Distress Oxide Ink is absolutely amazing!! I haven't yet ventured into Oxide inks, but I think you have sold me on it. Your card is so beautiful, everything works together so well. Yes, it is fun shopping from our long-lost stash that we re-discover :) Thanks so much for joining us at Cardz 4 Galz! -Chris, DT
