Sewing Rita


I was asked to make a large card for our former line dance teacher.  She has given up one class and is thinking of retiring from her other class so is having a small party.  She also sews and sells at craft fairs.  I was wondering what to use for the card when I came across this image in my file of printed images.  I have enough images printed and stamped to make hundreds of cards.

This is a Pink Gem Designs coloured image called Sewing Rita.  I used some old Craftwork Cards paper.  I used to love Craftwork Cards and always bought from them at shows.  I think the denim ribbon came from The Range and matched the papers so well.  The burgundy lace is from Crafty Ribbons.

I used the Daisy Mae torn edge stitched oval die again, flowers from Wild Orchid, a Joy leaf die and butterflies from Poundland from a few years ago.
