Welcome to another NinaB Designs blog hop!
For my project today, I cut thesweet little hearts out of 100% wool using NinaB Designs' Home Sweet Home dies. I also cut the Classic Oval die template from wool.
For this card I used LilyBee Designs Buttercup 6x6 pattern paper pad with Spellbinders S4-342 Square Swatches. After inking them with Ranger Frayed Burlap Distress Ink, I adhered them on to my card base and sewed them down.
Next, I cut out a Spellbinders S4-110 Classic Oval Lg from 100% wool felt. I also cut out the tiny hearts from the same felt. Even though these dies are tiny, they cut through the wool beautifully! After adding a bit of stitching to the wool, I adhered it to the card.
Using Nina B Designs' Sewing Elements set, I cut the sewing machine from Bazzill Bone cardstock and inked it with Frayed Burlap ink. I used foam squares to adhere it to the oval. I stamped the sentiment using The Crafter's Meow stamp set called Sew Lovely. I cut around it to create a banner an inked the edges. After adhering it to the card, I added the felt buttons and trim.
Here are the dies I used:
