sew much fun

i have to say, i had a lot of fun with this card! i made it for one of my bes friends - she's a HUGE twilight fan, and ever since we read the books (way before the movies people - believe it or not!), we have both been major 'team edward' supporters!! (sorry to danielle at girlracer scrap who's on 'team jacob'... *awkward* ha ha!)

i got these digi stamps from pixie dust studio, and have been wanting and wanting to make this card, and then this week i finally had the chance! the challenge this week (#37) at pixie dust studio is to use stitching (either real or faux) on a card. here's what i came up with:




see how sparkly edward is?? he's in the sunlight, ha ha! i colored him with a peach colored pencil, and then colored over the peach with my glitter pen to give the sparkle effect. fun!
moving on, i used my sewing maching to sew the letters down for 'team edward' as well as adding the horizontal lines to the double hearts. i have been using my sewing machine for a couple years with scrapbooking, and i just love it!




one more thing i have to add, see how jacob is not as bright as the rest of the card? i hid that part under vellum. i wanted to show the other side to the 'team edward/team jacob' debate. but since it was a pro-team edward card, jacob is on b&w paper and covered (sort of hiding under the rest of the card), because he loses. :)




let me know what you think!

and, enjoy!
