Celebremos! A Bday Card for my Tio



I finally broke out my SEW EASY pack that I bought a few months ago. I got a really good deal on a set that included the piercer, 6 piercing heads with different designs and 4 packages of different colored floss. It was a great deal, but I was a little intimidated by it. You see I am not very good a sewing - not very good is an understatement - so I was afraid my attempt to make something with a needle and thread would result in some kinda injury to me LOL But this little tool is AWESOME I started with the most complicated of all patternds, followed the instructions and I think I did a GREAT job if I do say so myself, not too shaby for my first time sewing on paper.... well pretty much sewing anything for that matter ha ha

I am not sure what the pattern is called, but its very cute and I used a glimmery blue floss that came with the set. This card is for my uncle who comes every year from Mexico to visit and we always have a great time hanging out with his family they are so welcoming and they have such GREAT food.

So here is my card and my masterpiece. I again used the freebie printable from Mouse, Paper, Lovely and the die cut is from one of my swaps that I did so I am not sure what cartridge is from.. but I am sure is from a cartridge and not an SVG. The sentiment is from MyPinkstampters Spanish set (love it!). The little charm is also from a swap I was in. Seeee how good I am  trying to use all my stash ..... ha ha  Enjoy!
