Cheep Talk and Big Shot Fabrics


This card was designed for a special workshop. I can't always honor specific requests for a workshop, but this one was a fun challenge and worked out just lovely! My hostess loves to sew and wanted to see the Big Shot in action with fabric. She also has a "retro" style and loves owls and birds!! So the first card I designed (after several attempts) combined the fabric with her love of birdies :)


Supplies:
Stamps: Cheep Talk
Papers: Whisper White, Night of Navy
Ink: Garden Green, Night of Navy
Accessories: Big Shot, Top Note Die, Scallop #2 Die, Whisper White 1/4 inch grosgrain, sponge, corner rounder
Additional Supplies: Denim (I cut up a pair of jeans my son out grew and wore holes in the knees - I have lots of these to choose from between my 3 boys) and red, thin "silky" fabric (also acquired from a friend, who had oodles left over from a Halloween costume cape she made).

Look around for unique uses of old clothes or rags you start to toss out! The Big Shot can cut thru so many different types of materials! But the easiest to come across is fabric - and with a little creativity you can avoid a trip to the fabric store! And you don't even need the Big Shot, even though it is totally fun. You can use a piece of fabric as an accent or in the place of where you would layer a sheet of designer paper!


Happy Stamping :)
