This week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge is, "It's a Stitch Up!" Translation: incorporate stitching or sewing somehow into your project. I decided to make a sewing kit out of a matchbook.
You've seen the outside view. Here's a peek inside:
To make this, I used the Tim Holtz Matchbook die, then I used some Tim Holtz fabric panels for the inside. I cut out two felt rectangles, then sewed two pieces of fabric around the felt (like a sandwich with the felt in the middle). This made the fabric panels more "padded" and the pins and needles stayed in them very well.
I sewed these panels into my matchbook, then I gave them some more oomph by gluing on some fabric that I'd stamped and colored.
I wrapped some embroidery floss around a ticket , which fits inside nicely, and there you have it! I used a lot of fun supplies on this project that you can find at Simon Says Stamp:
I can't wait to see what you come up with for this theme! Just upload your project to the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog for your chance to win $50 to the Simon Says Stamp store!
