I do hope you are all well ... I know that there have been snowstorms across the USA ... a cyclone in Australia ... and many other places are in a state of unrest ... so I am thinking about you all and wishing you well ... I also want to thank you all for your visits and comments ... I truly appreciate each and everyone and today I have a card to share ... I made this with you in mind ... for the challenge at CR84FN ... this is the lovely rich colour scheme ...
... and this is my card ...
Beautiful Tim Holtz DP ... which I also stamped on in brown and red inks using my stamps from Crafty Secrets ...
I also stamped and fussy cut a red lace border from the same stamp set and added a cream lace border on top
The tag was from my stash and I stitched some turquoise buttons on to blend with the red ...
That little sparkly star was an earring ... I just cut off the back and glued it down ... a TIP ... when I use earrings that are for pierced ears ... I keep the little stud that slides on behind the ear ... this can then be used for your pins ... when attach to clothes (or cards) to prevent fingers being pricked and also stops the pin coming off
Before I finish ... I would just like to say a huge Thank You to Play Date Cafe for picking This card as one of the Fab 4 this week ... I am so very honoured and grateful
Till soon ... keep safe

Hey, Ros! Congrats on being picked as a winner for last week's challenge at Play Date Cafe! And I like your 'sewing' card....very vintage looking. Appreciated the tip on saving earring backs, too. Cards always seem dangerous with a 'loose' pin hanging on there!
This is just sooo cute. I love all those buttons. What a great idea..
Hugs, Linda
sew special indeed! love how you stamped on the TH paper, added yummy buttons and the beautiful earring...love it, ros!!

Wow, Ros! This is gorgeous! I love how you did the button card. I have a button card stamp(no buttons on it) and I have been wondering how to use it. This is great, but I won't copy! I may just trigger my brain! Love all the stamping on the Tim Holtz paper. Just lovely!
I love this card !!!!! My favourite is the button tag, what a great card for a crafter with a gift attached.
Congrats on your Fab 4 !!!!!
You've combined just the right mix of stamped images and embellishments on this card. It's fabulous.
This is gorgeous! I love how you used the buttons.
You beat me! I was just coming to visit your blog! love all those buttons- nice to see another fussy cutter!!! I've heard that earring tip before but wondered whether you secure it with glue? xx
