Challenge #7 - Sewing

Well it is Wednesday and time for another Challenge on Little Red Wagon. I have to say that I have totally been enjoying completing these challenges on a weekly basis... it has been so inspirational to play with items I have had for a while and never even touched!

I specifically keep this in mind when creating a project for this blog and this week was no exception! I have owned these In Stitch Templates from Bazzill titled "Bring me Flowers" and have not used them on anything yet, hence why I chose Sewing as the challenge for this week! I used the Leaf template from this on felt to create the leaf for the flower. Here is my project for the week!

I used my spellbinder Nested Flowers and cut two sizes out of two different pieces of fabric and a small circle out of felt and hand sewed them together using a needle and some Floss. I created the stem of the flower by cutting a strip of fabric and folding it over and then sewing it with my sewing machine to the card and scrunching it as I sewed it to the card. I also used my PTI Backround Polka Dots I and II to create the patterned paper look...

Now don't be disappointed if you don't own a sewing machine... you can still play along by doing some hand sewing or even faux stitching by using a stitching stamp! I can not wait to see what all of you come up with for this weeks Challenge! Thanks for playing along with us! ~Avril
