Now I don't have anyone to pass on my sewing passion to, my boys never really took to it! HOWEVER, Alex's girlfriend is an AVID sewer and just recently made herself this incredibly amazing fully lined pleather jacket. I was gushing when she showed me because it was a work of art. She even took the pattern and altered it from a hoodie to a collar, and a button front to a zipper. If there was ANY hope at all that I could have fit into it, I would have most definitely tried it on! So you guessed it, this card will be going into my stash to eventually make it into her hands.

When it came to putting the card together and adding embellishments it was a snap with our awesome sketch this week. I added some lush vintage looking ribbon and a button on the lower right, with a Tim Holtz hanger clip on the upper left. Just a little shout out to Kim at Pickle for pointing those little hangers out to me! Next week our challenge will put you in stripes! YUP...use STRIPES ON YOUR CARD...on paper, in ribbon, on your image, anywhere. Just make sure it is a Stamping Bella image and send your submission to Emily by Thursday at 5. Remember, Christmas is just around the corner and if you should win those bella bucks did you know you can gift them!!!! Now how awesome would that be for one of your BFF's...a gift of some Stamping Bella Bucks!

gorgeously done Linda!!
STUNNING! I've seen this up close and personal, and the picture does nothing for the card. Very vintage looking, love your colour choice as well!
I agree with Pauline, simply STUNNING !! love the vintage colors.
This is stunning - I too grew up with sewers on all sides of my family - the colours are perfect
I love this one too! My Mom sewed but didn't quilt and my paternal grandmother quilted but didn't sew which means that I have the sewing genes from both sides too. I actually learned to sew on an old treadle sewing machine - man does that date me or what!!!
Great colours once again - perfect choice!
awwww, sawing for the future in-law, sounds like something I would do! LOL I have a word in my head that I am thinking of right now...can you guess what it is. {it's just for YOU}
that was supposed to say 'saving'...haha, not sawing... I know you like the girlfriend/future DIL. lol
This is STUNNING and beyond- WOW! I LOVE this image too! SOOO CUTE!
Gorgeous artwork! Absolutely gorgeous! Alex's gf should try out for Project Runway!
Linda, you are just one of those people who knows how to put it all together each and every time. I love what a heARTIST (I guess that's an artist with heart) you are. You are Her Heavenly Highness of Copic Coloring in my mind.
