Last year, Nettie G designed a Christmas Tree image, which she named Christmas Sewing Tree, which, as you well know, is just up my street. I entered the challenge and won, for which I really greatful! This is the card that I entered :
And then imagine my surprise when last week Nettie and Chris (one of her DT ladies) requested that I be their Guest Designer for the next two weeks, and the image that they wanted me to work with was one that was designed with ME in mind. Now how could I refuse an honour like that?
And what a beautiful image it is too .... here is the card made with "JenLee's Sewing Heart"
I printed the image on a linen weave cardstock as it isn't smooth, but the texture of fine linen. I coloured with my regular and watercolour pencils and OMS, using my own technique which gives almost flawless blending.
All the embellishments are sewn on, including the flower, ribbon and gold braid. I am very pleased with the outcome, and the way the colouring picked up the texture of the board.
Here are some handy links for you...
I would love it if you popped over to the Challenge Blog at Nettie G's and entered as well. I am sure the prize is well worth it, as Nettie's images are just great.
Happy crafting!
