I'm trying to wrap my head around the fact that it is already Thursday, but since it is {LOL!}, that means it is my turn for this week's Papertrey Ink Throwback Thursday! My love for papercrafting and sewing go hand in hand so when I get the chance to combine the two...I am in heaven! I adore when the stamps and papers coordinate so perfectly with my fabric choices; like they did today!
It's been a while since I've sewn some handmade baby items, so it felt really good to switch gears and get some sewing done. A gal in my neighborhood just had a baby girl so I got to work whipping up a few of my favorite baby gifts. You can see some past projects that I have made HERE. As you can see, the Stitched with Love stamp set was the perfect choice to complement these fabrics and the "handmade" vibe I like to add to these projects. This stamp set is selling for $5 which is a steal of a deal for the amount of images that you get!
I paired the stamping with the always-adorable Nostalgic Notions Pattern Paper collection which is the perfect companion for these images. This paper is on sale for $2!!! I need to get more because it is so cute! I created the card so quickly by using one of the printed panels! While this isn't a "baby" card, it goes so perfectly with the gift ensemble, don't think the mom will care!
I used the Scalloped Tags Die collection , which are back in stock, to layer up all of the stamped images. The sentiment is heat embossed in white onto Pure Poppy cardstock.
I was thrilled to find a flower shaped Aqua Mist button that fit perfectly on top of the stamped flower. I attached it with a glue dot for security!
I used the Nesting Basics: Pierced Circles and the Nesting Basics: Circles die collection to die cut the stamped circle pieces.
I also made a quilt, which I wrapped before I photographed it! ugh! I am so upset! Maybe I'll ask the mom if I can take a photo later! LOL! It didn't match the ensemble so I kept it separate, but it turned out so cute! I had so much fun on this project and I hope to do more sewing on a regular basis! Thanks for fluttering by!
The new mother will love these adorable creations!
