Just Married Card

This card measures 5ins x 5ins and is made using a white linen effect, hand cut card blank.
Just Married Car CardSomething very less is more today, using my trusty old sewing machine, who decided to have a bit of a crisis when I was putting the card together …. all my fault …..
Picture51…. I put the background of the card together first, using a little glue to hold it in place to stop it slipping ….. but unbeknownst to me,  behind the card all sorts of shenanigans were going on …..
Picture52….. aghhhh, all down to some decidedly shonky threading up!!!
Picture53However, I decided to turn this negative as a positive, and rather than start again used the excess thread that had accumulated to add dimension to the card, no one need ever know, well only you!
