All Occasion Card | Krafty Chicks Challenge #718 - Anything Goes

 


Hello!

We're back this week over at the Krafty Chicks Challenge with week 5 and that means "ANYTHING GOES"! Today I've got a mixed media card that features some vintage-inspired washi tape, hand stitching with beadwork and some antique buttons from my grandmother's sewing drawer!

I covered a piece of 130# white cardstock with strips of washi tape, aligning them right next to each other to cover the panel, and then attached a piece of skinny cotton lace to cover one of the seams. I added some stitching and beads to the lace and a bit more to a strip below, matching the colors to the washi tape.

The antique dress form image was stamped onto kraft card stock and the edges were inked. I cut the image down to fit a skinny tag, distressed the edges with sand paper and attached a peachy silk ribbon to the top. The collage images and sentiment were stamped with similar colors and distressed to coordinate. 

The tag was popped up with foam tape and attached to the washi tape panel. I added the collage pieces, buttons and bobby pin to finish off the front panel, which was then attached to a black card base.

Please join us this week with our Anything Goes Theme and share some love with the Krafty Chicks!

  6. That is amazing, Rachelle. All the little details you've added go so well together. Never would have known that was washi tape in the background and not patterned paper. WOW!
